About The Beach & Dog Company

About Beach & Dog: 

I love dogs as much as you. I ask so much of them and they require almost nothing in return. I spent 10 years working in the veterinary field caring and providing vital medical services for dogs and cats. In 2005 I was blessed to have my first child and I found love and comfort as a wife and stay-at-home mom. 

For years my family vacationed near the ocean and I spent many happy hours walking along the beach and riding my bike with my Jack Russell terriers in  small baskets that had no business being on a bicycle. I found a wonderful lady who made me my first two dog baskets and they were perfect.  I imagined a day where I would sell my own high quality baskets and pet products. 

10 years later I started the Beach & Dog Company on the simple idea that quality wicker baskets, fun and beautiful leashes, collars, and accessories should be available for beach lovers who want to share their passion with their best friends. 

I believe that when we turn a blind eye to where our money goes, we are inadvertently supporting companies and manufactures that aren’t in alignment with our values of quality and sustainability.  I believe in a sustainable future for us all and strive to manufacture and package my products in a way that minimizes waste whenever possible. I believe that family is of fundamental importance and I strive to maintain a healthy work/life balance. I believe that honesty is always the best policy and that trust has to be earned. I trust that you also share my values and will help me achieve my goal of seeing more dogs at the beach enjoying sunny days with their families.
