Julie founded Pup Wax in 2019, fulfilling a lifelong dream of building a business that makes the world a better place for dogs and their people.
Pup Wax® launched as the first 100% clean premium skincare brand for dogs -- a healthier, safer, and more effective skincare alternative. Made from high quality ingredients with therapeutic benefits, Pup Wax sources socially impactul inputs (including 100% organic, FairTrade certified shea butter sourced from Julie's father’s homeland, Ghana).
In February 2022, Pup Wax® rebranded as Puppington® to support its growth and expansion.
At Puppington, we’re redefining pet parenting with elevated, functional accessories that blend style and practicality. Our debut at Nordstrom marked an exciting milestone, proving that discerning pet parents crave premium, fashion-forward solutions that effortlessly complement their lifestyle.
We’re honored to be recognized as one of Oprah’s Favorite Things, a distinction that celebrates our commitment to creating stylish and innovative solutions for pet parents. Our Oprah-approved 3-in-1 Crossbody Dog Walking Bag & Treat Pouch is the ultimate hands-free solution for pet parents, loved by trainers and dog parents alike. With its innovative design, it pairs seamlessly in all 12 colors with our matching certified compostable poop bags, BPA-free slow-feeding travel bowls, and reflective leashes (sold separately), making pet parenting a breeze. Our dog walk bag sets are trainer approved & pet parent loved.
We’re also proud to have been featured in the New-York Historical Society’s Designing Women event as well as renowned media outlets like InStyle, People, Huffington Post, and even on ABC's The View—a testament to the love and trust our products inspire.
Sustainability is at the core of everything we do, as we aim to build a better world through products that reduce the carbon footprint. Our newest innovation—a line of biodegradable, certified compostable poop bags—features whimsical patterns and coordinated colors that complement our best-selling dog treat pouch bags, creating a cohesive look that blends fun with function.
At Puppington, we believe in the power of animals to enrich our lives and our world. We are passionate about giving back to build a more sustainable world for people and animals by creating products that reduce waste, promote reuse, and keep things fun for everyone. Since 2019, we’ve brought cute, clean, & calm together for planet-safe happy pet parenting.
