Joyride Dogs Surpasses $300,000 in Contributions to Animal Rescues
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 7, 2026 - Joyride Dogs, the well-known pet brand that has catered to over a million dog parents, proudly shares that it has crossed the impressive milestone of
$300,000 in both monetary and product donations to animal rescues and welfare organizations nationwide. This achievement marks a significant step in their commitment to support animals in need, with a long-term vision of raising
$1 million.
Founded nearly ten years ago, Joyride Dogs began its journey in CEO
Sam Pezeshki's Hollywood apartment, launching with the iconic
Joyride Harness—the original side-ring no-pull harness. The brand has significantly evolved into a comprehensive pet lifestyle enterprise, recently branching into canine nutrition with
Joyride's Kitchen, which offers premium dog food, treats, and chews made from a single ingredient.
"Giving back is ingrained in our operations," commented Sam Pezeshki, Founder and CEO of Joyride Dogs. “Our business was built out of a passion for dogs. As we grow, our ability to assist dogs in distress must parallel that expansion. Each purchase contributes to impactful support for rescues on the front lines."
Key Initiatives to Support Animal Rescues
The brand focuses its charitable efforts on grassroots organizations that effect immediate change. Their core initiatives include:
- - Rescue of the Month: Each month, Joyride Dogs highlights a different rescue organization, donating a portion of sales to bolster their efforts, thereby raising awareness within their community.
- - Direct Supplies Donations: Joyride Dogs provides harnesses, gear, treats, food, and other supplies directly to rescue dogs that require adoption.
- - Platform Amplification: The brand utilizes its extensive reach to share rescue stories and promote the adoption of pets.
With the growth of both the Joyride Harness and Joyride's Kitchen product lines, Joyride Dogs remains dedicated to its mission of supporting rescue dogs and ensuring they receive the love and care they deserve.
