Keep reading to find out more about this situation.
Todd Schram Comes Up With Gerty
Todd Schram came up with Gerty after his dog was anxious when he left. He realized putting laundry on the dog’s bed helped a little. However, it did not solve the issue. He made a mockup of the product by using an old Halloween decoration and a hoodie. The hoodie helped because it smelled like him. His dog curled up next to the decoration like it was a person. So, he came up with the real deal. He found manufacturers that made a soft product and the real thing. He made something that was pet safe and sat upright.
Where To Buy The Shark Tank Product
Gerty has been made, and customers are loving it. The doll sits upright, and you put a shirt or something that smells like you on it. It does not move or make noise; it is just a doll. It has three air chambers so that it stays upright. Also, it is big enough for a medium-sized dog to curl up next to. The arms are made so that a dog can sit in them. It is not meant to be a toy. Gerty is $39.99 or $64.99 for a custom one with a picture of your face. You can buy it off of their website.

It seems as though Gerty is to help pets when their owner leaves the house. It allows the dog, or even the cat, to curl up with the doll so they are not so anxious. This is something that pet owners love the idea of. However, some can be skeptical as if a blow-up doll will truly help their animal. They say to reach out to them if it does not work out for their pet. What do you think about this? Are you going to try the product? Sound off in the comments below.
