How it All Started…
Alissa and Travis May happily bounced from country to country, until the pandemic officially put an end to their lives as seasonal nomads.
Finally grounded in Alaska, they realized this now afforded them one major perk: the stability to get a dog!
Enter
Sabre Tooth May!
Sabre is a rescue from a remote Alaskan village, who effectively stole their hearts and changed the course of their lives.
In the Last Frontier, Sabre had plenty of space to run and play, and was welcomed everywhere they went. When the May’s relocated to Alissa’s home state of Pennsylvania, they hoped for the same. On the long (and epic) drive to PA from AK, they encountered many funky, dog-centric places and were quite sure they’d find more in Pittsburgh.
But upon arrival, they quickly realized that was not the case…
There were few and far between spots Sabre could join them, mostly just fenced in lots with zero amenities. With hot summers, cold winters and soggy in-betweens, why were there really no places to hang with pups? Or any places at all that really catered to the (truly underrepresented) dog-loving community?
And just like that, an idea was born!
