About Bodoga

Michelle Johnson

Hello, I’m Michelle.
‍
I have 2 quotes that really characterize who I am. “live like someone left the gate open”
& “she believed she could, so she did”

I love dogs, business, family, and truly enjoy helping people create great relationships with their pets.
‍
I met my guy; Shawn, in 2003. We quickly found that we both have a passion for traveling, exploring the outdoors, and boxers. Our family includes 2 teenagers; who occasionally work the store with us. And 2 Boxers; that we proudly admit are foster fails. Our love of squishy faced dogs opened the door for us to foster many boxers over the last 15 years and our support of local rescues ensures we are able to continue to assist our community by bringing awareness to pets in need.
‍
We stepped into the dog industry 16 years ago when we opened our first business; Escape the Crate, a dog daycare and boarding center. Our love for happy healthy dogs has led us to learning more about nutrition and helping clients find the best options for their pets.
We truly enjoy our neighborhood store and continue to look for small unique brands to share with you.

So, stop in with your pup, grab a healthy treat and make plans to explore this beautiful place
together.
