Gear that works. Shelters that get support.
Two things, kept separate on purpose, so you always know exactly what you're buying.
My Modern Pet started with a corgi named Zanna and a shelf of walk gear that didn't work. That's the honest origin. Not a cause, a problem I had every morning.
What came out of it is a small line of walk gear built to a standard I'd actually hold myself to, and one shirt that does something else entirely.
The gear
Built for the walks you actually take.
A water-resistant walking bag with a built-in dispenser. A harness with a locking buckle and independently adjustable straps. A five-foot leash that's wide enough not to cut into your hand. Designed to work together, priced to be bought one at a time.
The shirt
10% to shelter support.
Every Save the Dogs shirt sends 10% of the sale to dog shelters. Not a campaign, not seasonal, not a checkbox. It runs on every shirt, every order, from the first sale to the last.
Being straight about it
The donation is on the shirt. Only the shirt.
Plenty of brands imply a percentage of everything goes somewhere good, then bury the detail. We'd rather say it plainly.
The harness, the leash, the walking bag and the carrier do not donate. They're gear, priced as gear. The Save the Dogs shirt is the piece that gives, and it gives on every single sale.
If a brand can't tell you exactly which product donates and how much, that's usually because the answer is less than it sounds.
The one that gives
Save the Dogs.
Garment-dyed heavyweight cotton. Soft, lived-in, and the only piece we make that sends money to shelters.
Because the dogs who don't have a home yet deserve a good walk too.
