About Me

Puppy Bird Clothing with Cause Amidst a plethora of catalogs, malls and chain-store uniformity, Puppy Bird offers one-of-a-kind fashions for hip and compassionate individuals.

Our Causes:

Animal Rights: Our design prints are intended to spark awareness and respect for the plight of non-human animals that share this planet, through the animal images and thought-provoking quotes that adorn our clothing. Plus, we never use animal-derived fabrics (wool, silk, fur, feathers, or leather) for PuppyBird clothes.

Environment: Our design creations are made on recycled clothing and are imprinted water-based inks which are gentler on the environment than petroleum-based inks. Creating new fashions from gently used and vintage clothing expresses respect for our planet’s limited resources.

Social Justice: Our designs are printed and constructed in our homes, by us, not in a sweatshop. While we have little control over where our recycled and vintage clothing was originally produced, we know that PuppyBird clothing requires no additional human suffering for fashion.

Puppy Bird Accessories our necklaces are made with the same principals as our clothes, and many are made using recycled and vintage beads and pendants or "repurposed" materials.
