Our Story

Hi, I’m Iris, the creator of Bark & Shine!  Inspired by Muffin, my beloved gentle giant, I began this journey to create something special for him.  At first, it was simply about finding a bandana that would fit him perfectly, a challenge that led me to start crafting my own.  Each piece I made captured a bit of his personality, adding a little extra charm to out time together.  What started as a small creative project for Muffin quickly grew into a passion, and I realized I wanted to share this joy with other pet families.

Our mission is to create high-quality, nature-inspired bandanas that celebrate the warmth and joy pets bring into our lives. Each bandana is hand-sewn with care and attention to detail, ensuring it’s as comfortable as it is stylish. We carefully select fabrics and designs, from earthy tones and plaids to florals and forest patterns, to bring the beauty of nature into every piece.

At Bark & Shine, we believe pets are part of the family, and they deserve the very best. Our bandanas are crafted to last, made with love to withstand every adventure and bring out each pet’s unique personality. When you shop with us, you’re supporting a brand rooted in kindness, craftsmanship, and a genuine love for animals.

 Thank you for being part of our journey. We hope our bandanas bring a little extra shine to all the moments you share with your four-legged friends.
