Meet Riley, the face of
Tiny Growl and the source of inspiration for my invention,
The ScooPup Pocket.
As a life-long dog lover and animal advocate, it was a happy day when I was finally in a position to be able to give a dog a good home. It was hard reading all the stories and looking at all those faces on
Petfinder.com, but eventually Riley turned up. Something about his personal ad and picture said "he's the one". I couldn't have found a better dog, if I'd invented him myself. He is, as I always tell him, the best of boys.
I hadn't lived with a dog since I was a kid and until I'd adopted Riley, I hadn't really given much consideration to the less than pleasant aspects of daily dog walking. So it was on our walks that I started to think about a better way to deal with picking up dog poop.
After working on prototypes for a couple of years, I came up with a version that worked well. However, I still wasn't sure that I was ready to start a new business, but I was motivated to keep going, knowing that a successful business would give
Tiny Growl the means to make donations to animal welfare charities.
I hope you'll join
Tiny Growl by purchasing
The ScooPup Pocket. Together we can keep our environment cleaner, educate our friends and neighbors about the importance of picking up after our furry kids, and support those animal welfare groups that are making a positive difference.
