About Us
Our Commitment to you. Our toys are and will be made in the U.S.A. We promise our toys will be quailty made. We promise that our toys are "CHEW TOUGH". Made of a ballistic materiel, each square inch has 1000 stitches. We do not make the fabric, we purchase it from a company called Cordura Fabrics. The products we make are designed, cut, sewn and packaged here in America.
Dog owners ourselves, my wife Maria, my Sister Annie and myself were tired of purchasing dog toys that clamed to be "idestructable" only to find them ripped apart on the floor only 10 minutes after we brought them home. $15 to $20 toys gone after a few minutes. We understand that plush toys are not and can not be completely "indestructable", but lasting only 10 minutes, not acceptable.
We then decided to attempt to make some dog toys ourselves. I ordered a sewing machine from HSN and started buying fabric from our local stores. I tested every type of fabric I could get my hands on. Cocoa our Border Collie, chewed through every toy I made in minutes. I started reseaching different types of materiel on the internet and started ordering more and more materiel. Finally after months of making toys that Cocoa had her way with, I found The Cordura Ballistic materiel. This materiel was used to make attach dog training suits. Kevlar is the other materiel used, but it is not good for the dog's teeth, or digestive system. I sewed together a toy for Cocoa, and as hard as she tried to get the sqeaker out of the toy, she struggled. Not for minutes, not for days, but for a month before she started a tear in her new toy. She didn't rip it apart, she put a tear in it. I purchased enough materiel to make a few more toys, and I put them together for friends dogs to play with. From Scotties to Pit Bulls my friends dogs loved these toys, and they last. More and more people we knew wanted us to make them Dog Toys. Cordura is not in-exspensive.
We created Sharkbite Dog Toys, and started selling our toys. Mostly by word of mouth, and by going to Dog agility shows. Our ears were opened to what people wer looking for. We went through many shapes and sizes. We created our toys to be different than other toys on the market. Every toy we make is made with a purpose.
Sharkbite is also commited to helping local charities. 10 o/o of all our profits are donated to BAANK (Believers Against Abuse and Neglect of Kids). Toys as well as cash have been donated to local animal charities as well.
Help Us help our country. Buy American when you can. Together we can help the U.S. economy.
