It’s not often that you hear of a CEO of a major company being replaced by a pet dog, but that’s exactly what Elon Musk has done with Twitter. Earlier today, in a surprise move, Musk announced that his pet dog, a Shiba Inu named Floki, will be taking over as CEO of the micro-blogging site.

Will Floki succeed as the new Twitter CEO?
Others have pointed out that Musk is known for his unconventional and often controversial decisions, and that this move is just another example of his unorthodox approach to business.
Only time will tell how Floki will fare as CEO of Twitter. While it’s unlikely that he will be making any major decisions or setting the company’s strategic direction, the move has certainly generated a lot of attention and brought Musk and his beloved pet dog into the spotlight once again.
