Vendor Spotlight: The Urban Dog Mom
Ashley Macon, known as The Urban Dog Mom, is a passionate dog lover and entrepreneur. After her time in the army, she returned back home to Birmingham to pursue her dreams of starting a doggy daycare and bakery.
Growing up in Woodlawn, Ashley witnessed the neighborhood’s transformation through initiatives like Woodlawn Street Market (WSM) and REV Birmingham. Inspired by her community’s revitalization, she noticed an increase in minority business owners and wants young individuals to see they, too, can turn their passion into a successful business.
Through extensive research and polls, Ashley found nothing in Birmingham that offered one on one special care for animals. She realized the need for her skills here in Birmingham and began her business in 2017. She offers holistic treatments, using meditation music, sound bowls, crystals, CBD products, and calming treats to address anxiety and promote overall health.
The Urban Dog Mom also values the importance of nutrition and makes homemade healthy dog treats with natural ingredients like strawberries, chia, turmeric, dog-friendly herbs, and flax seeds. Ashley is dedicated to providing dogs with wholesome, chemical-free food to ensure a healthy and long life, including her own fur babies, Nico, Mila Rose, and JT.
Through her business, Ashley is making a PAWsitive impact in the Birmingham community by offering holistic dog care, promoting well-being, and inspiring others to pursue their passions. Come by and support The Urban Dog Mom this weekend at the Woodlawn Street Market!
