If you’re lucky enough to share your home with a dog, chances are you give him (or her) a treat now and then, if not several a day. And we think every good boy and girl deserves the very best from Ruff Seas Treats. 

 

In business since March, 2022, Ruff Seas is owned and operated by Dawn Weigel. The name of her business was inspired by Dawn’s love of dogs and her time spent on the high seas. “After teaching math for 14 years, I resigned in 2016. My husband and I sold all our belongings, bought a sailboat and sailed the eastern seaboard, the Bahamas and the Caribbean with our dog Piper. After five years, we sold our floating home and moved to the Pacific Northwest.”

 

While living on the sailboat, Dawn thought long and hard about what she wanted to do after returning to dry land. “I decided I didn’t want to go back into teaching, at least for the time being. I knew I wanted to do something where I could be home with Piper because he started having seizures at the end of our time on our sailboat.” She continued, “I’d been baking treats and cakes for Piper since we brought him home at seven weeks old. While on the sailboat, I baked for Piper and any other pups in the ports and marinas we shared. I was able to test my treats out on other "picky" eaters. I continue to enjoy baking for Piper and our other furry friends.” 

 

Dawn bakes five delicious sweet and savory flavors that even the pickiest eaters and
diet-restricted pups will devour with delight. All Ruff Seas treats are made with human-
grade ingredients, no preservatives, and lots of love. Choose from:

 

  • Banana Beet Biscuit

  • CheddaBacon Biscuits

  • Ginger Snap Biscuits

  • Nutty ‘Naner Biscuits

  • Tuna Turmeric Biscuits

Ruff Seas has not only inspired much tail-wagging among our four-legged besties, it’s
been gratifying to Dawn as well. “Starting this business had helped me become more
social and learn more about the community in which we live. We love it here and are
honored to get to bake for your furry friend!”
