Press RoomMichigan Dog Credited With Starting Internet Business FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Rochester Hills, Mich.

Neighbors, friends and family have decided it's a must to own one since seeing Spanky's wholehearted endorsement. Actually, it's his beloved dog sitter who started the business after seeing how much Spanky and his dog pal Lily loved a toy they received recently. Duncan Freeman is an entrepreneur, but he did not have to develop a business plan to sell the Flippy Flopper™ – a flying disc for dogs. Spanky wrote it for him. Last winter while taking care of Spanky and Lily, From the moment Spanky and Lily first saw the Flippy Flopper it became a necessity. Spanky absolutely won't go anywhere without it. Sometimes it just hangs from the side of his mouth. It's a necessity to have at least two because, even when Spanky fetches one, he won't put it down until he sees that there's another one on its way in the air. The Flippy Flopper flies great and hovers very well in the air. Spanky is a five-year-old male yellow Labrador retriever with a lot of spunk and character, so he's become the Flippy Flopper's top salesman, or we should say salesdog.

Lily is a beautiful and serene 10-year-old female black Labrador retriever that started acting like a puppy again when she got a hold of the Flippy Flopper. Anything Lily gets Spanky wants, so she doesn't always get to hold it for long, even though both dogs now have multiple Flippy Floppers. She is salesdog number two, though, because she shows off the Flippy Flopper when she can. The Flippy Flopper is an ideal toy for dogs, and people, too. It is soft on a dog's mouth, lightweight, easy to carry around and it floats, which is great in warmer weather. It's nice for those wintertime walks where it gently lands on snow and can be picked up easily by dogs or humans. Spanky just flips the Flippy Flopper up from the ground with his paw anytime he wants to pick it up and carry it around. It's absolutely a must-have, according to Spanky. Flippy Floppers come in a variety of bright colors and can be ordered in any quantity. An order of 10 or more comes with free shipping.
