Show Notes
Katie McCarron's son had just graduated from college and jumped in to help the family business get started the first year. The background story: The family's dog, Rosie, was 14 at the time, and had started to go downhill, losing weight and energy. Katie started doing some research and began creating Rosie's food at home. Rosie began a remarkable recovery, gaining weight, getting stronger and living to a ripe old 16 1/2. It's a real family affair; daughter handles marketing, son is a resident physician but helps with the nutrition development in new products, and husband, also a physician, works on distribution and fundraising. Now in over 800 stores, the popularity is because Portland Pet Food uses natural and wholesome ingredients and has been able to package the food without cooking it to temperatures that destroy the nutrients.
