An Invitation: Help Shape the Launch of Classic Cove 🐾⚓

We are bringing the launch batch of Classic Cove — our premium prebiotic dog beverage — out for one more round of taste-testing before it heads to production. We are looking to expand our local tasting circle, and we would love for your dog to be part of it!

We always listen to real dogs and get their reaction so that Classic Cove is a recipe every dog will love. We believe we have it and are doing one more tasting round to make sure.

If your pup is local to the Kalamazoo area and you're free this evening, we will bring a sample over for them to try.

Comment below or send us a message if you'd like in. Limited spots for tonight, but if we don't connect in time, we would love to include you in the next round.

Journey, our Chief Tasting Hound, loves it. Now we need to make sure your hound does, too — we look forward to hearing from you!

— Tracy & Journey, Hound & Harbor

Honored to have won tonight's pitch competition at Start Garden in Grand Rapids! Every founder on that stage did a fantastic job, and the networking connections made tonight were incredible. Thank you to everyone involved with the Start Garden experience — judges, organizers, and fellow founders alike. This funding takes Hound & Harbor's Classic Cove from proof to scale, and I couldn't be more excited for what's next. 🥂🐾
