Do you ever look at your dog lazily laying on your bed or couch and wonder, "When are you gonna earn your keep?" Well, now your dog can have a job and it pays "ruffly" $20,000 a year.

Busch Beer is actually looking to pay a dog to be their Chief Tasting Officer, which comes not only with a $20,000 salary, but healthcare (pet insurance), and stock options (free Busch Dog Brew).

In a fun video, dogs are seen doing interviews for the great gig.

While this might seem like a joke, Busch says the job is a "very serious role." A Chief Tasting Officer's duties include leading the expansion of Dog Brew's flavor portfolio, taste-testing, and serving as an ambassador for the product.

Dog owners can submit their furry friends for the role on social media by posting their pet's photo and qualifications with the hashtag #BuschCTOcontest.

Busch reps said in a press release, "In order to get the job, your pup needs to possess a refined palate, an outstanding sense of smell, and must be a 'very good' boy or girl."

In the late 1990s, she started working with Dolly Parton. And yes, Nancy reports that Parton is as sweet as you would think. She loves her life in country music and has been backstage at every CMA Awards show since the late 1990s. Many of her stories are from her one-on-one interviews. She was there at the beginning of the incredible careers of many music superstars today, including Taylor Swift, Shania Twain, and Blake Shelton, and has interviewed them multiple times throughout the years.
