EP06: Dogs Deserve Fancy Treats too with Amanda Yu-Nguyen, Wag Boards

Mother of Dogs

Welcome to the sixth episode of Mother of Dogs. Tina is joined by Amanda Yu-Nguyen.

About Amanda and Wag Boards:

At Wag Boards, the story begins with a moment of inspiration, sparked by a post-wedding ceremony charcuterie box. As I enjoyed the snacks in the charcuterie box, I couldn't help but imagine the same joy for my dogs. A confirmation with my husband and a simple text exchange with my sister ignited a passion that quickly transformed into this small business.

Driven by a deep love for dogs and a genuine passion for food, Wag Boards combines the best of both worlds. Inspired by the artistry of human charcuterie, I infuse creativity into every board I create. My eyes are constantly peeled for food trends, ensuring that our doggy charcuterie is not only visually stunning but also a culinary delight.

But it's not just about appearances—taste is paramount. Each Wag Board is meticulously curated, featuring the highest quality single-ingredient novel proteins and limited-ingredient dog cookies. I prioritize sourcing from fellow small businesses, forming a community of support that goes beyond our products. When you choose Wag Boards, you're not only treating your pup to something extraordinary, but you're also nurturing the spirit of small business collaboration.

With Wag Boards, you can indulge your four-legged friends in a world of delectable delights, carefully crafted with the highest standards of quality. Wag Boards: Where passion for dogs and food unite in a snack experience like no other!
