About Us
Rusty was born in Oregon in March 2025 and came home to Arizona after a cross-state road trip and a whole lot of love. From day one, he’s been mom’s velcro pup- vocal, playful, and obsessed with water, sticks and his big sister Josie. After early GI struggles, we found healing through natural supplements and Open Farm’s clean nutrition. Now, Rusty’s thriving- and we’re sharing our journey to help other pet parents raise happy, healthy pups.
