Quick Hits:

This week, we sat down with Meghan Wolfgram, founder of SwiftPaws, to talk about how one dog’s love for the chase turned into a nationally recognized enrichment brand. From garage-built prototypes to landing a deal with Lori Greiner on Shark Tank, along the way, she’s raised over $1 million to keep fueling the mission.

Here’s what we dug into:

  • How Pretzel the miniature pinscher, inspired the very first SwiftPaws system and sparked a bigger mission.

  • The leap from professional-grade equipment to a consumer-friendly product—and why that risky decision changed everything.

  • What it was really like to pitch SwiftPaws (with Piper in tow) in front of the Sharks - and walk away with Lori’s Golden Ticket.

  • How partnerships like Zesty Paws and the World Enrichment Crew are reshaping the future of pet wellness and play.
