Melissa Patton is the co-owner of Dancin' Dog, a boutique company crafting all-natural treats for dogs, catering to the Greater Tennessee area.

What business do you run?

I’m Melissa Patton, co-owner of Dancin' Dogs. I’ve always been passionate about animals. Several years back, when my dog developed severe allergies, our vet recommended making our own dog treats. Today, we proudly offer homemade, all-natural dog treats as the heart of our business.

What inspires you about being an entrepreneur?

Originally, this was my sister's passion project. Sadly, she unexpectedly passed away last year. I decided to relaunch the business as a tribute to her. It's my way of honoring my sister and her deep love for animals.

What advice do you have for aspiring entrepreneurs?

Just get out there. Just do it. There will never feel like a perfect time. But I promise; cheerleaders will show up for you when you do.
