My Pet began in 1991 in Mathoura, a small country town in NSW, when a dear little Jack Russell called Tuppy, shivvered so much it seemed the right thing to do to let my sewing training, skills and experience (TAFE Fashion Certificate) finally "go to the dogs!"
Originally starting at local markets, business grew and grew. Now My Pet has supplied Pet Shops, Vets, Businesses, Government (Customs, AFP, Border Security, Police, Bomb Squad, Councils, Businesses and others); as well as the General Public via our Internet websites (now at www.doghats.au) with a delightful selection of dog hats, jumpers, coats, clothing, accessories, and other dog supplies.
Our My Pet and Bones-R-Dry brands are made in Australia by myself. I have a huge love of dogs and a passion for quality sewing. Indeed, sewing for dogs at My Pet has kept me so busy there is rarely any time left for sewing for myself or people! But then, dogs are NEARLY people anyway! Right?
Now located in Albury, NSW we look forward to helping pet people everywhere.
Tuppy - our original inspiration, in his Bones-R-Dry coat;
and Bindi, our dear little model, in her Camouflage jumper.
Over many years, Tuppy and Bindi faithfully and patiently endured many sessions of fittings and helped with trials of new designs to determine the most comfortable fitting for dogs everywhere. They seemed to know they had an important role in the business as they modelled at markets and fairs.
