At BostonZest every member of the team is important, especially the VP of Security & Morale. So after a long and thorough search, we\u2019re excited to announce that Duchess Poppy Whitehead has accepted our offer to fill this vital position.<\/p>\n

This lovely, little girl arrived one week ago today and immediately assumed her duties, lifting the spirits of everyone she meets. As with any new hire, there will be an extensive training period as we all get to know each other. <\/p>\n

While at times exhausting, Poppy says she\u2019s up for the challenge. This amazing Westy<\/a> comes to us with a long list of talents. Besides being a cuddler, a kisser, and a belly-rub fan, at 14-weeks-old she\u2019s already nosing around the timelines on Twitter.<\/p>\n

On her second day here, Poppy mastered iPad scrolling with her nose! It\u2019s really not all that surprising when you consider that she also watches TV, but admittedly hasn\u2019t mastered the remote, yet.<\/p>\n

Poppy is adapting to the city soundtrack\u2013 including an encounter with the blasting horn and blaring siren of a fire truck answering a call\u2026 didn\u2019t even flinch!<\/p>\n

Poppy\u2019s also learning to walk on a lead, follow some basic house rules, and is beginning to get comfortable in her new digs. Plus, she\u2019s making lots of new friends! <\/p>\n

But, her biggest accomplishments have been melting our hearts and bringing back our laughter\u2013 something Poppy did the moment she climbed into our arms. <\/p>\n
