Ruff Rope LLC

Hand-Made We've designed our production model to provide work for people with limited options due to time, transportation, or mobility. Human powered manufacturing has little impact on the environment, and allows us to pay good wages to good folks. Local Our toys are shipped all over the country. However, we endeavor to coordinate our rope sources and toy creators so that there is limited transport before the final product is shipped to you. That way we keep our carbon footprint as small as possible. Up-Cycled By re-using retired climbing rope, we’re keeping it out of landfills. This allows us to make a toy that doesn't require as much energy, or resources as a toy made from scratch. It also replaces the production of new future waste. American-Made We are citizens of the world and everyone deserves a means to provide for themselves no matter where they live. However, by having our toys made here in America we know they aren't being produced by oppressed people in unacceptable working conditions. Charitable We know how lucky we are and we know how lucky our dogs are. So we think it's important to support animals in need. Every tenth toy we make along with a portion of all sales are donated to a shelter in need. As we grow, eventually we will be able to use our platform to increase the success of dog adoption programs, helping to find more animals a good home.
