    Sep 2012 — Present · Philadelphia, PA, US

    The first Therapeutic Mattress engineered specifically to meet the unique (and underserved) needs of large dogs. Created in 2012. Engineered to extend the happy and healthy years of a dog\'s life.\\\\n\\\\nOriginally started as a niche product with outsourced manufacturing in California, the brand grew rapidly and consistently over the years - especially after the clinical study in which University of Pennsylvania demonstrated significant quality of life improvements after using a Big Barker for just four weeks.\\\\n\\\\nThe company now employs over 30 people, does eight figures in annual revenue, and produces all beds in-house in our facility in Reading, PA.\\\\n\\\\nA majority stake in the company was acquired by Tenth Avenue Holdings in 2020.
