Family Story

The owner of Arfinia, Suzy Haber, created Arfinia in 2020 to honor the three beautiful, loving, sweet puppy-dogs that have graced or still grace her and her daughter, Dani’s, lives. 

First there was the sweetest, biggest furry white ball in the whole wide world, Freddie. Freddie was the first Haber family dog and they think that he was a cross between a Samoyed, a Great Pyrenees and an American Eskimo. He was big and furry and cozy and lovable as can be. Suzy brought Freddie home one day for her daughter, Dani. The day Freddie came home, Dani was so excited she jumped for joy! And being an only child, Dani finally had a friend that she could play with anytime she wanted. 

The second dog, Curly, was Dani’s favorite dog and the love of Suzy’s life. Curly was an English Springer Spaniel with big floppy ears and was as loving as can be and used to follow Suzy wherever she went. Suzy used to adore grooming and bathing Curly, the sweetest dog ever. Being a hunter dog, many times Curly would want to make Suzy happy by running into the backyard and bring Suzy a special gift of a bird in his mouth.

At the time that Curly came into the Haber family’s life, Dani was afraid to sleep in her own bed by herself because she thought that there were ghosts coming to get her. Then a miracle happened. Every night when Suzy went to tuck Dani into bed, Curly would jump in bed with Dani. Their heads both lie on the pillow together, while Dani spooned Curly all night long. And that’s how Dani learned to sleep through the night and she never had a problem sleeping in her own bed again. 

And now we have a new love in our lives, Woody. Woody is a beautiful, loving, dedicated, sweet, sweet boy. Woody is a golden retriever and the most special doggie. Woody lives with Dani and her husband Jonathan, so Suzy gets to hang with Woody all the time. And Suzy gets to spoil Woody with all of Arfinia’s beautiful, healthy, fun, delicious products.

These sweet furry friends were always Suzy’s inspiration in life and they put a smile on her face every day. Now, through Arfinia, Suzy gets to honor these amazing doggies and help improve the lives of doggies everywhere, by bringing these healthy, natural, balanced, human-grade, eco-friendly, artfully-designed products to your special pup!
