Hello!

My name is Lynna & this is my pup, Puck. Thanks for stopping by on this crazy journey we’re on together!

How was Woofboard created?

I was funemployed during the pandemic and wondering what I wanted to do with my life when I noticed barkuterie boards popping up on social media and thought, “Wow, what a brilliant idea!” Plus, everyone and their mom got a quarantine dog, so I knew it would be a great niche. So, I picked up one of my charcuterie boards, some of Puck’s treats, and my camera and the rest is history! I never could’ve imagined what Woofboard would become to me - the perfect creative outlet, a chance to meet so many people & pups, and to be part of an amazing small business community!

Aside from meeting the cutest pups, I’m also excited to introduce a whole new world of treats to fellow dog parents! I only use natural, minimal-ingredient, & preservative-free goodies on my boards.

Why?

Puck went through a period where he was getting blisters & hives all over his body. The vet said it was allergies and originally offered some ointment and medication. Nothing worked and it continued for months. I felt like the worst dog mom ever!! Finally, I decided to get an allergy panel done to figure out exactly what Puck was allergic to. Turns out he’s allergic to a crap ton of things - flaxseed, beef liver, venison, kangaroo - the list goes on - none of which were normally in Puck’s diet. I immediately changed his diet to a more natural one, subscribed to Farmer’s Dog for his meals, and started discovering companies that sold single ingredient treats. I started paying attention to the ingredients of all the treats I gave Puck. Now, I only buy treats where I can read and understand every. single. ingredient. With these changes, almost instantly, Puck’s allergies went away and he hasn’t had a single blister since. I’m definitely no nutritionist & still learning as I go, but I want to show other dog parents that there is more to life than what you see on the store shelves - aka milkbones! I love that I get to introduce new types of treats and use Woofboard as a platform for dog parents to sample new treats without fully committing to an entire bag. Nothing’s worse than bringing home a new bag of treats only for your dog to turn their head away and waste your hard-earned money. Not only that, but I get to support fellow small businesses in return!

In September 2022, my dream of owning a storefront came true! we were able to fulfill a 2 year lease with moment in Downtown San Jose. We hosted pet events seasonally and built an amazing local community of fellow pet lovers! It was such an amazing experience, but you know what they say, “all good things must come to an end”.

In july 2024, we expanded to a newer & bigger location in Downtown Campbell. We not only carry our household dog charcuterie, but we also carry a variety of dog goods ranging from toys, treats, grooming supplies, accessories, & more! We even have a build your own barkuterie bar! We proudly source all of our goods from over 100 different small businesses around the world. If you’re in the SF Bay Area, make sure to stop by our shop!
