Why Raised Dog Bowls?

We're so glad you asked!
Health is one of the most important factors to consider when choosing any product for your pet. With raised dog bowls, your pet will no longer have to strain their neck and back but can enjoy their meal comfortably. An elevated dog bowl can reduce the risk of choking, regurgitation, and digestive issues by providing the optimal feeding height.
Our Why

At Comfy Paws, our vision extends beyond our hearts and homes.
We can change world statistics; one raised bowl at a time. We are committed to empowering teams that share God's love with unreached people groups.
Together, we will bring hope, make a difference, and reach the world!
Our Founders
Merle Weaver

Merle, a co-founder, lives in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, with his wife, Beth, and their twelve children. Merle is involved in several other non-profit and business organizations and enjoys finding ways to see young people developed and empowered as serving leaders. Merle and Beth got their first dog when they were newly married before they had any children. Over the years, they welcomed other pets and continued learning how to make their pets healthier and happier! Their family has several dogs, and they realized the importance of quality you can count on.
Melvin Lapp

Melvin, a co-founder, was born and raised in the heart of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. His upbringing in an entrepreneurial environment, watching his father run a successful manufacturing company, instilled in him the values of hard work and dedication. His early years spent working on the farm further reinforced these principles. Now residing in Ohio, he strongly desires to inspire and uplift individuals who have lost hope, channeling his upbringing and values into every facet of our company.
Fun fact: Melvin comes from a large family and has ten siblings. Six siblings are married, and he has 42 nephews/nieces.
Our Values

Excellence
"Do you see a man who excels in his work? He will stand before kings; He will not stand before unknown men." Proverbs 22:29
Excellence is at the core of our business. Our dedication to superior quality and service ensures that each product meets or exceeds expectations and provides your pets with the utmost care and comfort.
Humility
"Do nothing out of selfishness or conceit, but with humility consider others as more important than yourselves, looking out not only for your interests but also for the interests of others." Philippians 2:3-4
In our business, we value humility. We realize that our customers and employees are more important than ourselves and that each has a role in our success. We constantly endeavor to grow and seek to hear other perspectives.
Integrity
“He who walks with integrity walks securely, but he who perverts his ways will become known. Proverbs 10:9
We are committed to integrity in all our business interactions. We believe in treating our employees, customers, and business associates with utmost integrity and providing a platform for a business you can trust.
Generosity
"The generous soul will be made rich, and he who waters will also be watered himself." Proverbs 11:25
Generosity is an important value to us. We are committed to empowering and supporting organizations that support our "why." We continue to find ways to weave this value into our business and be generous to our customers and employees.
Service
"But Jesus called them to Himself and said, "You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those who are great exercise authority over them. Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you, let him be your servant. And whoever desires to be first among you, let him be your slave— just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many." Matthew 20:25-28
Our greatest business success is serving others and empowering them to become great. We are committed to serving, and we look forward to serving you!
The Golden Rule
"So in all things, do to others what you want them to do to you—for this is the Torah and the Prophets." Matthew 7:12
We believe in treating others with the utmost care and respect, as we would like to be treated. Our customers are important to us, and we continually strive to ensure you have a wonderful experience with our business and find things to your satisfaction!
