The Story

How a questionable night sparked the world’s most honest recovery brand.

The Journey

From party hare to recovery dog — it all had to start somewhere.

2025

“Never again” became the spark. The long 3 day weekend that changed everything.

2025

We went into the lab (and the grocery store aisles). Prototypes. Testing. Refining. Rejecting everything that didn’t rally.

2026

Rally mode: activated. Product launch. Recovery revolution begins.

Picture this: It’s 2025, and our founder Shawn Hare is deep in the grind- late nights wrapping up work, client dinners that run long, one more drink because relationships matter.

The alarm comes early. No recovery day. No excuses. He’s got a morning tee time with his buddies and a full day ahead.

The drinks weren’t the point. The work was. But the morning-after punishment felt unavoidable.

Standing there, half-awake, he muttered the words every adult says at least once: “I’m just going to get a little hare of the dog.”

And just like that- Hare of the Dog was born.

Hare of the Dog was born the next morning — right after the Advil kicked in.
"Never again… until next time."

— Every Hare of the Dog customer, probably.

Born from necessity, perfected through experience.

From party hare to recovery dog — we’ve been there.
