The Swaddling Family

Jeff and Amie Swaddling, Owners

Jeff and Amie Swaddling grew up in Columbus and were high school sweethearts. They both moved to Chicago for college where Jeff attended Northwestern University and Amie attended Lake Forest College. Shortly after graduate school and upon starting a family, Jeff and Amie moved back to their hometown to raise their children and to be closer to their extended family in Central Ohio. They’ve been happily married for twenty-five years and they currently live in Dublin, Ohio, with their eleven children, and two pups – a six-year-old Boxer, Bella, and a three-year-old Boxer, Charlie. In their free time, Jeff and Amie can be found spending time together with family and friends, sharing their passion for fostering and adoption, serving in their church, and loving on others in the community through a variety of local area ministries. They are excited to be able to love on your pups and to also bring awareness to the causes they support through the Dogtopia Foundation.
