Inspired by Kenny
The idea for Just Hanging Out began with Kenny, a Yorkipoo whose diabetes care required frequent injections and daily handling. The challenge of giving repeated treatment safely and consistently inspired the creation of a practical support device designed to help others facing similar care needs.
