The Problem

The dog product industry
is broken.

Walk into any pet store. Pick up a dog boot. It's hard plastic. Complicated straps. It falls off in three steps. Your dog hates it. You wasted $40.

Walk into any pet food aisle. Half the ingredients you can't pronounce. The other half you probably shouldn't feed your dog.

Browse rescue fundraising on Instagram. Someone's asking for donations. You have no idea where the money goes. You donate anyway and hope for the best.

The entire dog product industry is built to make money — not to help dogs.

We're done with that. Freedawgs exists to fix what's broken. Starting with boots.

Meet Amy

It's never been
about the destination.

Amy will be the first to tell you it's never been about the destination. Just following curiosity, saying yes to the next adventure, and figuring it out along the way.

That journey happened to start in Hong Kong and Japan, where she found herself deep in the world of global sports and entertainment — managing productions for ATP Tennis and Golf events across Southeast Asia and building partnerships with names like Nike, Adidas, and Corona. From there, she stumbled into film, working as Production Manager with Lionsgate and the legendary Roger Corman (yes, including Casper: A Spirited Beginning).

One thing led to another — as it tends to with Amy — and she landed at Ogilvy as Account Manager, where she got to work with iconic brands like Disney Resort Hotels, Delta Airlines, and The Sundance Catalog.

She's been finding her footing in tech ever since, bringing her media and marketing background to senior roles at Oracle and Thomson Reuters, plus high-growth startups like Duetto, operating as both Senior Marketing Consultant and Enterprise Account Executive.

Thirty-plus years later, all those twists and turns have a way of adding up. Amy brings that full, winding journey to everything she does for dogs — and she's genuinely just grateful for the ride.

Her Pack

The reason all of this exists.

Every product Amy designs has to pass the toughest review board in the world: her own pack. If they wouldn't wear it, we don't make it.

The Promise

“Ethical products.
Transparent funding.
Dogs first. Always.”

Every product we make has to pass three tests:

  • Would a vet recommend it?
  • Built to last more than one season?
  • Does buying it help a dog in need?

If the answer to any of those is no — we don't make it.

Four rules.
Zero exceptions.

  • Transparency

    We show you exactly where your money goes. Every purchase. Every donation. Every dollar raised for rescues. No mystery.

  • Quality over profit

    Dogtires are built to last 10 years. We'd rather sell you one great product than three mediocre ones. Better for dogs. Better for you. Better for the planet.

  • Community first

    The Pack Page exists because dog owners have the best stories. We're just the platform. You and your dog are the stars.

  • Rescue always

    20% of profits. 100% of YouTube ad revenue. We're not a charity but we fund them. Every product you buy helps a dog in need.

The Manifesto

99% of dog products are made to sell.
Ours are made to work.

We are a small company. We are bootstrapped. We are building this one batch at a time.

We are not trying to be the biggest dog company in the world.
We are trying to be the most trusted one.

If you buy a Dogtires boot, it will protect your dog's paws. Period. If it doesn't, we want to know. We will fix it.

If you submit content to The Pack Page, your dog's story will fund real rescue work. Transparently. Publicly. With receipts.

If you join a Pawpack, you will meet real dog people in your real neighborhood who care about real dogs.

That is the promise. That is the mission. That is Freedawgs.
