Jess and Greg Stone - Go Ruffly
Jess and Greg Stone's story started in 2013 when they worked as aid workers in Africa. Jess learned to ride a motorcycle and together they then explored South America for eight months, falling in love with Guatemala, where they decided to settle. They adopted a German Shepherd named Moxie and founded Go Ruffly, a company that produces high-quality outdoor gear for dogs. To allow Moxie to accompany Jess, they invented the K9 Moto Cockpit. Last year, they embarked on a global trip to raise funds for Girl Up. Despite recent significant changes in their lives, Jess and Greg's perseverance has kept them going and they plan to have many more adventures. Jess and Greg have been on ARR numerous times over the years, sharing valuable information and tips with our listeners and keeping us engaged with their captivating stories.
