Chicago’s new safe digging “ambassadog” is Questa, a pandemic pup who moved here to get adopted and chase rabbits
Peoples Gas has unveiled Questa — a hound dog who moved to Chicago from Oklahoma — as the company’s new safe digging “ambassadog.” Questa’s new job title was announced this morning at Lincoln Park Zoo, where the pup proudly stood before cameras. Questa is three years old and has a heartwarming backstory. She moved to Chicago from Oklahoma after a family in the Andersonville neighborhood agreed to foster her during the COVID-19 pandemic. Questa was very sick at the time with heartworm, ringworm and hookworm. The family nursed her back to health and adopted her. Then they discovered her passion for digging.
