City Puppies

I established a publishing company based on the concept of creating personalized books featuring dogs for their owners. My process involved hosting local events, photographing over 75 dogs alongside their owners, writing brief biographies about each pet, and ultimately publishing a book showcasing all the dogs from the event. Along with selling the books to owners and local pet, book, and boutique stores, I also offered various merchandise such as apparel, mouse pads, coffee mugs, greeting cards, and portfolios featuring individual dogs.

After four years and the creation of four City Puppies editions (Portsmouth, Seacoast, Newburyport, Oceanside), the company was acquired by a Boston-based investor.
