Co-Founder Jon Kurtz graduated from the US Naval Academy and had a 25+ year career in the service. Now the ex-sailor designs catchy slogans and grows the company Dog Is Good with his wife Gila Kurtz; they carry a greeting card line that is Made in the USA. As for the Navyman-to-dog-card-writer career transition? Jon said it wasn’t as difficult as it might seem if you don’t know him, “I’ve always had a creative side. I’m not a musician, I’m not an artist, but I’ve had a creative side and a certain type of humor, and that’s what I get do now.” As the business grows Jon says he now doesn’t get as much time as he’d like to devote to working on the designs and slogans.

Every dollar you spend is a vote.
