He's set to star in the upcoming television project, Pets Welcome Here as the K9 Adventure Guide. He was abandoned twice in downtown LA before finding his forever person, Megan Blake. Megan had been looking for a grounded confident dog who could help rehabilitate her nervous German Shepherd who had been abandoned four times in her short life. After searching over a month, Megan saw Smiley at the shelter. She looked right into his eyes and said, "Are you my dog?" He starred back "I am." But the shelter had him on a 28-day hold. Even though his owner had abandoned Smiley, they had not technically relinquished him. So Megan visited Smiley every day until his day of freedom. When the day arrived, Megan waited at the shelter gate hours before it opened, sitting like a groupie at concert doors to insure she claimed the smiling dog who had already claimed her heart. Soon after, while they were watching television, one of those sad commercials for pet adoption appeared. Smiley looked right into Megan's eyes and thought real hard, "We have to change this. We need a happy campaign that will energize people to go out and adopt a pet!" And... The Super Smiley Flash Mob 4 Pet Adoption was born! Smiley and Megan have been energizing pet adoption with their Flash Mob Tour across the US in cities including NYC, LA, Daytona, San Diego, Phoenix and Greensboro and at events like the Southern California Belly Dancer Shimmy for the Critters and at a 2,000 seat amphitheater with the show's cast on stage opening the musical Hairspray! A Super Smiley Adventure is Smiley's Radio Show that explores pet travel, adventures and journeys of inner discovery where pets lead. Beneath the adventure and whimsy are always animal advocacy messages.
