Mikey Centrella and Morgan Foery
(PRESS RELEASE) The Chesapeake Bay Dog Company, maker of the BAYDOG brand of performance-oriented dog products, has welcomed two new employees to its team.
Mikey Centrella has joined The Chesapeake Bay Dog Company as the chief marketing officer. Centrella is digital marketing and communications expert who has helped global brands, nonprofits, universities, and arts institutions achieve success with digital branding, marketing and advertising. Over the past 18 plus years he has held VP roles with PR and advertising agencies such as Ogilvy, Publicis and AKQA, and has run digital campaigns for P&G, Citibank, General Mills and Discovery Channel. With his knowledge in social media marketing and branding, Centrella will be responsible for maximizing growth and establishing a strong digital presence for BAYDOG.
The Chesapeake Bay Dog Company has also hired Morgan Foery as its social media & brand manager. Foery is a social media strategist and designer with success in developing and building brand identity. Over the past five years, she has worked with startups such as Amy Believes in Pink Boutique, Kaeli Smith, Sea Dipped, and several independent influencers. Her work has been featured in J.Crew and Coastal Living, and on TLC. With her background in design and social media, Foery will be guiding BAYDOG’s content creation and brand identity.
“We are very excited to add Mikey and Morgan to our team,” said Barton O’Brien, founder of The Chesapeake Bay Dog Company. “They both bring a wealth of branding and social media knowledge to BAYDOG as we continue support our brick and mortar retail partners by building our overall brand awareness.”
Centrella concurred: “I’m thrilled to join the team and improve upon BAYDOG’s online experience to date. This brand, at its core, has a story that resonates with customers both online and in retail stores. Having been a Beagle owner for years, and recently getting a new Labrador retriever puppy, I know that when dogs are a central part of your family, you want the best for them. Everything in the BAYDOG line is designed to last and is reasonably priced, which is a refreshing change from what I’ve encountered in a lot of big-box pet stores.”
Foery mentioned: “I’m so excited to be joining BAYDOG and sharing stories of people adventuring with dogs. And I’m looking forward to working with the BAYDOG team and their customers — people who love their dogs as much as I do! It’s a great brand and I can’t wait to expand our social media presence.”
The Chesapeake Bay Dog Company launched in 2018 and is headquartered in Annapolis, MD. It is 100 percent veteran-owned and offers a full line of performance-oriented dog accessories. All products are 100 percent guaranteed and can be found in over 500 stores nationally and in Canada.
