Gary Dahl was originally an executive of an advertising company. 1975 In April, when he was partying with friends in a bar, he overheard others complaining about their pets. At that time, he told his friends that the "perfect" pet should be a stone, without feeding or bathing, without getting sick or dying.

At first, it was just a joke, but Dahl was excited by his idea, and then he decided to put his idea into practice, and the "pet stone" was born. Just like a real pet, the "pet stone" is packed in a paper pet box, which contains a classic quotation guide for pet training and eloquence training. In order to ensure the comfort of the "pet stone", straw was placed in the carton with air holes.

The price of each "pet stone" is $3.95 and the net profit is $3. In the first half of the first year of listing, "Pet Stone" brought Dahl an income of 654.38 million+0.5 million dollars.
