Three designs, three personalities - which one matches your pup best? Thoughtful and grounded, happy-go-lucky, or adventure seeker? 🐶✨

Fun facts: Our dog collars are made from the bark of cork oak trees 🌳 in Portugal, harvested by hand every 9 years after they reach 25+ years old. This process doesn’t harm the trees – it actually helps them absorb more CO2! Unlike synthetic materials or animal leather, cork fabric is naturally biodegradable and doesn’t harm the earth of animals 💚

Curious about what your dog accessories are really made of? Here are some pros and cons of common materials for dog gear (part 1/2):

▪️ Animal Leather
👍🏻 Durable, ages well with proper care. Naturally tanned leather may biodegrade over time. Often a byproduct of the meat industry.
👎🏻 Significant environmental impact from livestock farming, including deforestation and greenhouse gas emissions. Often chemically treated, making it non-biodegradable. Ethical concerns around animal welfare.

▪️BioThane
👍🏻 Extremely durable, waterproof, and easy to clean.
👎🏻 Plastic-based (polyester webbing with a TPU or PVC coating), non-biodegradable, and non-recyclable. Contributes to microplastic pollution and eventually landfill waste. There are no specific peer-reviewed studies or pet safety tests to support the common claim that BioThane is “non-toxic”.

▪️Cork Leather
👍🏻 Made from the bark of cork oak trees, a renewable resource harvested sustainably, allowing the tree to continue growing and absorbing CO2. Biodegradable, water-resistant, and scratch-proof.
👎🏻 Often paired with synthetic backings, like polyester, which prevents it from breaking down safely.

Note: We source our cork leather from Portugal, bonded with GOTS-certified organic cotton and natural adhesive, ensuring it’s free from synthetics for the highest quality!

▪️Ocean-Bound Plastic
👍🏻 Helps prevent plastic from entering the oceans and repurposes waste.
👎🏻 Still plastic, meaning it doesn’t biodegrade, sheds microplastics, and pollutes waterways. Many brands use misleading marketing, making customers believe they’re helping clean up the ocean when, in reality, ocean-bound plastic has never been in the ocean but is collected from areas near it.

Note: Check the percentage of ocean-bound versus virgin plastic. Some brands label products as “ocean-bound plastic” when it’s only a small percentage.

Named after the Old Norse word for “road” or “path,” our ‘Vegur’ design is perfect for the adventurous dog who loves taking the road less traveled, or the eco-conscious pup who picks plants over plastic or traditional leather.

Are you vibing with the curves of ‘Vegur’? 🤎

Fun facts about Shiba Inus 🐕

▫️ They’re one of the oldest and smallest dog breeds from Japan, with a history dating back over 2,000 years!

▫️ Shibas are known for their dramatic vocalisation called the “Shiba scream”. When overly excited, anxious, or just stubborn, they let out a high-pitched, loud yelp or scream that can surprise anyone!

▫️ Despite their small size, Shibas have a bold, independent, and sometimes stubborn personality. They’re confident and not afraid to let you know what they want!

▫️ While they might come across as a bit aloof, Shibas are fiercely loyal and loving companions. They form incredibly strong bonds with their families and are always ready to show their affection!
