Retail - Lenexa, Kansas, United States
Muttz R Us was founded in 2009 by me and my wife Kate. Several years earlier I decided to quit my job as a district manager of an automotive care firm and became a stay at home dad. Kate worked for the Federal Government and was traveling up to three weeks a month. Between the two of us we decided one of us should take a step back so that someone was home with the kids. We have two boys, Donovan and Dylan. Life went on, with me being Mr. Mom (my love and respect go out to all the stay-at-home moms and dads…it's harder than it looks!) I told Kate "I've got to get a part-time job!" After 15 years of being in the workforce, I needed something besides game shows and soap operas while the kids were in school! I took a part-time job at a national pet supply chain and before I knew it, I became a dog trainer. A passion was born! I have had dogs since I was four years old and currently my family owns four! We have three muttz, Penny, Lexie & Bear, and we also have a Purebred (yes, even I own a purebred!) Leonberger named Leo. She was adopted, just like my other three muttz. She is sight impaired with roughly 70% vision loss, which adds a different aspect to socialization and training for a dog. I primarily train on weekends, which are the same two days the company I work for invites adoption groups into the store. I regularly saw the number of dogs and cats that never found a home. It made me wonder how many people actually realize the number of wonderful and viable pets that are wanting and needing loving homes. We decided that "Adopt a Pet, Save A Life" should be our philanthropic motto. We paired that along with our desire to help animal organizations raise funds and came up with T-shirts to make fun of our Purebred cousins (remember, I own one too!!), and "Ta Da!", Muttz "R" Us was born!
