•Kangaroo pocket & leash opening on the back

We created Dogly out of boundless love
And a healthy amount of frustration, creativity, and refusal to take no for an answer.
We’re mother-daughter partners in just about everything. Loving and fighting for (under)dogs together. Believing in humans who start things, who see a better way and just do it.
Dogly started with our own dogs and quickly became about yours. It’s no secret our dogs are our heart – at the center of everything we do and everywhere we go. We noticed you feel the same way, millions of you actually.
We also noticed that while all of us moved to a whole new place in living and loving life with our dogs, the big, established retail/online businesses hadn’t moved with us. They don’t reflect the way we feel about our dogs and what we want for them.
We built Dogly for you, and for dogs everywhere… dogs who are loved like crazy and dogs looking to be loved like crazy. Because it’s high time someone brought this beautiful ecosystem together, in one place, for the love of dogs.

Luvabullz & Co.: 1 Custom Digital Edit
Value $50 USD
The winner of this item will truly have something amazing to show their friends and family and something to treasure for themselves.
-
Luvabullz & Co. is owned and operated by an extremely dedicated, caring, and genuinely all round wonderful artist named Danie. Danie is a 'one woman' shop wtih a mission to help suport rescues and shelters and to save more dogs.
Luvabullz & Co. started by accident, sparked by an Instagram account sharing photos of Danie's dogs. One day, she had an idea for a digital edit and posted it on her account asking what everyone thought, and even offered some for free to those who loved what she'd done. The response was so overwhelming that she decided to offer "donation commissions": an edit in exchange for a donation to rescue. It ended up raising over $1300 for Frosted Faces rescue in CA.
Danie then had some of the edits printed on buttons, again just for fun, and asked what everyone thought. And again, enough people liked them that she decided to start a small business - and Luvabullz & Co. was born!

FitBark: Fit Bark 2

FitBark puts an emphasis on dog and human health as one.

That's why they are entirely dedicated to getting you and your pet healthy together. And making it fun!
54% of US dogs are affected by obesity and it is the single largest epidemic facing our pets today. Clipping a FitBark to a pet's collar helps humans just as much as it benefits their pets!

Bad Tags pacakge:
1 Tag + 2 stickers
Value $30 USD
Nothing says how much you love your dog than gifts! The
Bad Tags
in this package truly personify exactly what us dog lovers believe... "My Favorite Breed is Rescued" and "Dog Hair - Don't Care". Add those to this amazing tag "Aint No Mama Like the Mama I Got". YES!
Owner, Cristen, is a dog mom to 4, and she wanted her pups to have tags that expressed their goofy personalities. Unable to find anything like this, she set out to design and create her own line of tags in 2014.
One of her first tags was for her beloved bulldog Moose, who literally couldn't stop licking. He liked toes, elbows, the cat. His first tag read "Can't Control My Licker". His big brother Napoleon was 120lbs and awkward as heck. His first tag read "I'm The Reason We Can't Have Nice Things". Cristen's husband seeing these early tags commented how bad they were (bad as in hilariously funny/true) and it stuck. Bad Tags.
She continues to receive inspiration from her own dogs, and every tag ordered is created by Cristen with the utmost care and attention to detail. There is no hired help. So when you purchase from Bad Tags, you are supporting a small dream (not a CEO's third vacation home).

L'ARTE Photography:
1 Pitbull Art Project Greeting Card set
Value $40 USD
Photographer Laura Zecchin 's love for pitbull type dogs has steadily grown over her years volunteering in shelters and rescues.
Seeing what these dogs endure on a daily basis through Breed Discrimination, neglect and in many cases torture, has brought a much bigger reality to her life and drove a passion to help the breed.
Through her passion of photography, the Pitbull Art Project is a fine art photo gallery of artwork of pitbull type dogs she met while volunteering for Rescues or the Shelters, or photo shoots of those who been adopted and are now enjoying their forever family.
The focus is capturing that moment, that look, or expression that tells a story. Their story.
It is through these images that Laura hopes to make an impact and a difference in how these amazing souls are viewed and perceived.
Every image has a little write up of the pups so you will know their story.
The project's goal is to share these images and hope they will be shared by others so as to show what Pitbulls truly
are; a loyal, loving and dedicated breed that just like any other pup, all they want is to be loved back and
have a family to call their own.
