ABOUT US

A Dude and A Dog is a company founded by a 17-year-old and, you guessed it, his dog. Our mission is to make very high-quality rope toys for dogs that are much more affordable than our competitors.

I, as a dog owner, feel that high-quality products for my dogs are essential. But, things on the market now are getting steeper and steeper in price. So, I thought, "Why not make my own, high-quality dog toys, and sell them to the everyday dog owner?" And even better yet, there's a good cause involved. This is where the dog part of 'A Dude and His Dog' comes in.

My dog is named Sergeant, Sarge for short. We rescued Sarge from a shelter not only to be a great companion as well as a best friend but also to train to be my service dog. I have many medical conditions that are very hard to manage and make my daily life a living hell. Sergeant is supposed to help me with some of those issues, for example, alerting me before I pass out, or helping me be prepared for an anxiety attack.

Training a service dog is a lot of work. This dog is seen and used as a medical device so they have to be very reliable. And with reliability comes a lot of training.
