Artie

Chief Cuddle Officer

Artie, aka Artemis Von Wigglesrump, is an Australian Shepherd, born approximately in 2010 (he’s a rescue dog, so we don’t know for sure) and adopted by Robert Soekardiman, Westwood Plateau Golf’s Restaurant Manager. Artie started working at the golf course in 2015 as their furry greeter and is currently serving as Chief Cuddle Officer at Lago Golf Academy. He spends his days greeting guests and members, running the fairways, riding in golf carts, and constantly requesting to be pet.
