Hi! We're Kathryn and Derek, the co-founders of The Pawwp Company. Like you, we're dog parents who believe our dogs Koa (pictured on the left) and Freddy (pictured on the right) deserve the very best.
Pawwps was born from watching Koa, constantly shake her head and bite at the noisy, dangling tags hanging from her collar. We wanted her to wear identification in case she ever got lost, but it was clear that what we had been using was bothering her.
So we decided to build something better.
What started as sketches on paper became handmade prototypes in Derek's welding shop, followed by countless prototypes and two years of real-world testing on our own dogs through hikes, dog parks, and everyday adventures. We didn't stop until we created a dog ID tag that quietly clips onto the collar, stays securely in place, and is comfortable enough that dogs barely notice it's there.
Today, every Pawwps tag is thoughtfully designed in Canada, custom engraved, and crafted from lightweight, aircraft-grade aluminum to help keep dogs safely identified without the jingling, dangling, or loose split rings of traditional tags.
Thank you for visiting our little corner of the internet. Whether you're here to find the perfect tag for your best friend or simply have a question, we'd love to hear from you. When you reach out, you'll be talking directly with us.
