In 2021 when I was 12 years old, I embarked on an exciting business journey. It all started with a simple idea - creating something unique for dogs. I have always had a passion for animals, especially dogs, for my whole life and wanted to combine my love for them with my entrepreneurial spirit. After a couple months of brainstorming and deciding on what product I could create, I decided on making dog bandanas. I named it Salty Pup because I have been out on the water since I was a little girl and I wanted my brand to be inspired by the ocean. With the unwavering support of my family, I set out to turn my dream into a reality. With no sewing skills, an old sewing machine, and some fabric, I began designing and creating one-of-a-kind bandanas for our beloved dogs. I taught myself how to sew and made a few mistakes on the way, but it got easier and easier the more I practiced. Eventually, word spread about my creations, and soon enough, I got my first few orders. I am so glad I had the opportunity to create this business at such a young age, and I am very proud to call myself the owner. I really hope this bandana business will become the foundation of my success, and I can't wait to see what the future brings!
