If your dog worries when you cry during tearjerkers, comfort him with his own pint of Ben & Jerry's.
Mark Bomback, Screenwriter, The Art of Racing in the Rain
Screenwriter Mark Bomback translated the book The Art of Racing in the Rain to the big screen. How'd he take Garth Stein's bestselling novel and make our eyes all red and puffy? He explains his methods ... and also introduces us to the exceptional Mongolian dog breed called Bankhar.
Lindsay Bumps, Global Marketing Specialist, Ben and Jerry's
Lindsay Bumps thinks dogs deserve their very own ice cream. And since she works for Ben & Jerry's, one of the most dog-friendly companies in the United States, she gets her own way. She visits to tell the story of Doggie Desserts, their brand-new, human-grade treat for pups. And yes, we (and our dogs) get to take a few licks!
