Factors
Ownership
100.0 reportedCA 100%
The vendor's Terms of Service names the operating entity as 1974 Johnson Inc., operating as Rocky Mountain Dog, at a Calgary address; its About page credits a single founder, Rob, with no co-founders, investors or parent company named anywhere on the site. Corporations Canada's federal registry returns zero results for "1974 Johnson Inc," consistent with a provincial Alberta incorporation; the Alberta Corporate Registry, which would hold the significant-control register, is not in the fetchable source list and was not queried, so ownership beyond the founder-led narrative is unverified.

The vendor's FAQ states its leashes, collars, poo bag holders and poo bags (its largest product lines) are made in China, and most apparel is made in Mexico with final assembly and branding done in Canada; it also states the Canadian Rockies collar and leash line, all bandanas and all rope leashes are made in Canada. The 0.3/0.7 split is an estimate weighted toward the China-made collar and leash lines, which appear to be the bulk of the catalogue, since no per-line unit or revenue counts are published.

The site discloses no webbing, hardware or fabric sourcing origin for any product line. This mix mirrors the disclosed manufacturing split as an estimate, since gear made in China or Mexico is likely sourced with materials local to those factories, while the smaller Canadian-made lines (bandanas, rope leashes, Canadian Rockies collars/leashes) would draw on a mix of local and imported inputs.
