The Eco-fabrics
Eco-Pup®️ believes that fabric quality is extremely important - not only for fashion but for sustainability. To help ease the impact on the environment, a garment needs to last for as long as possible.
Eco-fabrics are easy to care for but are more delicate than the average cotton or polyester fabric that can withstand a certain level of abuse. Your dog's Eco-Pup clothing will have its own specific care instruction, and following it will maximize the lifetime and beauty of the garment.

Eco-Pup®️ felt catnip toys
Our felt catnip toys are handmade with Wool felt and stuffed with our all-natural home grown catnip! That's right, we grow all of our catnip ourselves without using pesticides or other chemicals. We think this helps our catnip to be extra irresistible to even the pickiest felines, as it lets the true natural qualities of the plant come through a lot more than other mass-produced catnip plants.
