Doggie Dinghies was launched because of Trey, an adopted 3-legged dog, and a YouTube video that was posted July 20, 2008.
Jerry and Joanne Harris, Treys’ owners, designed a raft so that he could play for extended periods of time in the pool without having to exit, to rest. Trey is missing one of his front legs, so he has to work extra hard to keep his head above water. The raft is semi-submersible, which makes it easy to mount and dismount from the water. It also provides a safe place to land, when jumping into the pool.
The organization that rescued Trey created the video to tell his story; from his accident, through his adoption. The video shows Trey and his sister Zoey enjoying play-time in their swimming pool.
Video viewers expressed positive interest in the raft. Doggie Dinghies was formed in response to that interest.
The raft fills a need for all dogs, handicapped, or not. There isn’t any other product like it on the market. Doggie Dinghies hopes to expand their product line to include canine hydrotherapy equipment dog ramps, and dog beds.
Every Doggie needs a Dinghy!
