Cinnamon Deoudes

Chief Happiness Officer

Chief Happiness Officer, Cinnamon, brings enthusiasm, excitement, and sometimes high jumps to her role. While she was trained at an early age to ring the bell to be taken outside, she often skips that step and barks instead, or rings the bell to visit with the children at the school bus stop across the street for belly rubs.

She reigns supreme at home and celebrates her Mediterranean culture by helping prepare meals – especially those involving pasta and cheese.  Her statuesque form can also be observed sitting for long stretches in front of her snack cabinet, but her favorite place is being held like a human baby.

While she enjoys Mediterranean cuisine, she has not adopted the commitment to exercise favored by her family.  She will take short walks but will plop down at any point when she has reached her steps.  In the DC area heat, this happens more often, requiring almost daily hair cuts.
