An Idea is Born
Doggy Threads started as a hobby of dressing up our two small dogs Pumpkin and Frosty. Our terrier Pumpkin has very thin hair and it gets cold during the winter here in the high desert of southern California. My skill and joy for sewing things together sparked me to learn more and triggered my curiosity to create more outfits using what seemed to be an endless variety of fabrics and patterns.

Prove the Concept
When I decided to sell some of my products online I realized, I need better machines to help me produce more faster. I bought some industrial strength machines, boy did they help, they were fast and slightly intimidating but got the hang of them fast since I had the basics down. I started this as a business in March of 2015. We attended some local events and flea markets here in the Antelope Valley to test the idea and have been busy ever since. I opened a kiosk at a local mall to further pilot our product. The feedback has been great and people have enjoyed seeing Doggy Threads on their four legged friends. I have enjoyed this a lot and will be attending more events and ultimately trying my hand at wholesale supply

Scale up and Grow
In order to keep up with demand and the many events throughout the year we started attending, I needed to standardize on my processes and make my craft more efficient. All of our patterns are now digitized and cut by a state of the art laser machine. I added a few more industrial single needle and overlock machines and can churn out hundreds of units in no time.

Loving what I do
Doggy Threads is a family owned and operated venture. We love working together as a family and enjoy making great looking outfits for your beloved pet. I'm sure you'll love seeing your cute dog in our threads as much as we do and you'll see you can't get this level of quality for the same price.
