At Tracy’s Dog they’re “reinventing sexual wellness for the modern woman”. Their mission statement is “Life for a modern woman can get overwhelming. Career. Relationships. Children. Obligations & Responsibilities. We feel you and we’re here to help. When every other thing in your life gets complicated, orgasms shouldn’t be one of them. And sometimes you just need a little help for them to happen.” We agree!
They make a wide array of toys, but their specialty is luxury toys that focus on external clitoral stimulation.
