The HurriK9 Team:

John Hunter, Co Inventor:

John and Laura Hunter have worked together on toy products since 2002.  Laura was originally a school teacher and tour guide in Copper Canyon Mexico and John was a former rocket scientist, solar airplane inventor. HurriK9's appeal was confirmed when John tried it with his daughter's dog Amos and Amos went nuts.  Then Laura tried it with her daughter's dog Fifi and Fifi loved it as well.  Both Amos and Fifi are featured in our videos.

 

 

Johnny Hunter, Designer:

Johnny earned his mechanical engineering degree from San Diego State. He helped his Dad in the design of the product as well as market testing the materials to finally arrive at the EVA foam rings. Johnny has also helped his Dad by attending tradeshows and getting customer interest at beaches and parks around San Diego.
