Since Tucker was 2 years old, he has made 7-figure profits from sponsored ads on social media. Courtney Budzyn, Turkers’ human mother and social media manager, explained, “A paid post on YouTube can cost anywhere from $40,000 to $60,000 for a 30-minute pre-roll.”
She told the New York Post: “Instagram, we make about $20,000 for anywhere from three to eight stories.” The 31-year-old dog owner used to clean houses for a living and her husband, Mike, was a civil engineer. The couple quit their jobs to manage Tucker’s wealth and his social media fame, along with their puppy son Todd’s account.
Courtney started an Instagram account for Tucker when she got him at 8 weeks old in June 2018. In just a month, one of Tucker’s videos went viral. The Michigan native explained that the video was simply about Tucker playing with an ice cube, but it struck a chord with viewers online.
