As we celebrate 10 years, we want to thank you for being part of our journey, sharing your pups with us, and making The Foggy Dog what it is today.
Here’s to another decade of tail wags, unforgettable memories, and making the world a little brighter for dogs everywhere!

Our Story

What started as a small passion project has grown into something so much bigger. A lot has changed in 10 years, but some things never will.

It’s All in the Details

I've always believed it's the little things that make something special. Whether it's debating the perfect shade of pink or milling our own flannel for just the right softness, we've spent 10 years obsessing over every last detail.

Made With Care, Made to Last

From the beginning, I wanted manufacturing partners who shared my deep commitment to quality and craftsmanship. Ten years later, we're still working with the same three family-owned U.S. factories who took a chance on us back then.

1 Order = 1 Pound

I've been supporting rescue dogs since I was 12, so being able to make an even bigger impact through The Foggy Dog is especially meaningful to me. With every order, we give one pound of food to rescue shelters. Thanks to you, we've provided over 500,000 pounds and counting!

The Foggy Dog Team

For Dog Moms, By Dog Moms

What started as one dog mom's dream has grown into an incredible team of women who love dogs as much as I do. We know there's nothing quite like the bond between you and your pup, and it's what inspires everything we do.

  • 2016

    The Foggy Dog started on Etsy with pillow-style dog beds and a simple idea: pet products could be thoughtfully designed, too.

  • 2017

    We started at local craft shows, meeting some of our first San Francisco customers and growing the brand one connection at a time.

  • 2018

    Our first collars launched and quickly became a fan favorite. We’ve continued expanding the category ever since.

  • 2019

    With orders stacking up, we hired our very first employee to help pack boxes and keep up with the growth.

  • 2020

    We moved into a 2,500-square-foot space in San Francisco’s Mission District, giving our growing team and inventory more room.

  • Red and Black Check Wear Set from The Foggy Dog

    2021

    As the brand grew, so did the recognition, including one major pinch-me moment: being featured in Oprah’s Favorite Things!

  • 2022

    We held our first official brand photoshoot with photographer Christina Schmidhofer, who we still work with today. Every dog on set was a TFD pup-stomer—a tradition we’ve continued ever since!

  • Hidden

    Embroidery and engraving were introduced to help you create something just for your pup. Today, over 50% of orders include something personalized!
