The Walkee Paws leggings go over the dog’s feet and then tie onto their back, to ensure they can’t pull them off, and that their paws stay protected the whole time. The leggings also protect against hot pavement, rain, snow, allergens, dirt and mud.

Further, Lisa shared with the sharks that she is getting ready to launch a second product, which is basically socks for dogs, with a rubber bottom to help them get traction on a slick floor.

In her first two months of business in 2018, Lisa sold $64,000 worth of Walkee Paws. In 2019, she increased her sales to $524,000 and in 2020 she is expecting to do $1 million in sales.

Further, on the $1 million, she will profit $250,000.

Daymond John spoke up regarding concerns over the valuation, so he dropped out.

However, Kevin O’Leary was interested, and he made two different offers. The first was one of his famous royalty deals of $150,000 for 5% equity and a $2.70 royalty until the $150,000 is repaid and then it drops to $0.50 in perpetuity. The second offer was for straight equity and was $150,000 for 20%.

At this point, Mark Cuban interrupted and shared that the product wasn’t for him, so he dropped out.

Barbara Corcoran didn’t feel like Lisa needed a partner, so she dropped out next.

Lori Greiner didn’t think that Lisa was the right partner for her, so she was also out.

With only Kevin remaining in the negotiations, Lisa countered him back at 10% equity, sharing that she wasn’t interested in a royalty deal.

However, Kevin wasn’t willing to change his offer, so Lisa and Walkee Paws left Shark Tank Season 12 without a deal.
