In our divided society, one of the few things that people can agree on is the love they share for dogs. The bond that humans have with dogs can be traced back to 30,000 BCE when hunters rewarded wolves that hung around their camps with scraps of food. In turn, these wolves helped humans hunt. As the symbiotic relationship between humans and dogs developed, dogs became the first domesticated animal, evolving into the lovable pets they are today.
Dogs provide companionship, reduce anxiety, and form a powerful neurological bond with their owners that is comparable to love.
In this post, we'll talk about how Dog is Good, a lifestyle apparel company that captures the magic of the human-dog relationship with their products. We will discuss the licensing agreement that Huge Brands has with Dog is Good, and explore how you can leverage Dog is Good merchandise to grow your shop.
In 2008, Gila and Jon Kurtz launched a brand to capture the unique bond that dog owners share with their dogs. They endeavored to create comfortable clothing that expressed the special sentiment that dog lovers experience, and Dog is Good was born.
The Kurtz success hasn’t come without growing pains; they have experienced many setbacks, but their tenacity and love for dogs fueled their growth and enabled them to face these challenges head on, transforming the company into what it is today.
People love anthropomorphizing their dogs (treating them and interacting with them like humans), and the Kurtz success is a result of their efforts to capture the uniqueness of the human-dog bond in a tangible way.
As the company grew larger, Dog is Good expanded their creative offerings to include eye-catching designs of typical activities people do with their dog.
In a video on their website, Gila Kurtz discussed her efforts to contact leads. When GIla reached out to potential clients on the East Coast, they were stoked about the opportunity to sell Dog is Good apparel in their stores because they had never seen anything like it.
“We wanted to come up with a sleep shirt,” Kurtz said. “When that started to takeoff, we noticed that people do so many things with their dogs,” the couple explains in an interview about the success of Dog is Good with Growire.
Dog is Good merchandise captures the hearts and minds of dog owners because it is relatable, comfortable, and part of their daily activities.
Dog Owners are an Incredibly Loyal Group of Consumers
In today’s world, dogs aren’t just pets, they’re family. And it’s hard to find a more loyal group of consumers than dog lovers:
The consumer experience for dog owners is different than almost any other product or service. Owning a dog is an experience that never gets turned off, used up, or thrown away.
People are very invested in the experience of owning a dog: just think of how many dog owners buy monthly toys, treats, or clothing for a dog. These are the exact same customers that would be willing to buy Dog is Good apparel.
That’s a lot of people.
“The major ingredient in Dog is Good as a company and each product individually, is capturing that remarkable feeling we as dog lovers have when when we’re near dogs”
