Seemingly non-notable company that possibly fails WP:GNG and most definitely fails the reformed WP:NCORP guidelines. The company exists, but in-depth coverage about said company is lacking. Some news stories do cover the topic, but these take the form of product announcements or reviews that throw in a trivial mention of Ruffwear. Nothing exists that indicates how or why Ruffwear is individually distinct or notable when compared to similar companies, nor why the former's inclusion in an encyclopedia is warranted. In addition, (note the following point is more of an observation than a policy argument) the article was created by an editor (User:Ruffwear) with a clear conflict of interest.

 * Delete: A WP:COI article on a company, sourced to passing mention in local media and best-places type lists. There has been an analysis of the weak sources on the article Talk page since April 2010 without improvement. No claim to notability, and no better coverage found in searches. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH.
