Because “one size up” was never enough.
From a Trash Bag to a Brand for Big Dogs
We couldn’t find a raincoat that fit our golden retriever — even the biggest size came up short. So we grabbed a trash bag. She looked ridiculous. We felt worse. That moment stuck. Big dogs don’t just need more room — they deserve smarter design. That’s why we built WOOFESSENTIAL.
Dog Mom’s Hack Turned Brand
“Big dogs aren’t difficult to fit. They’re just not considered.”
Big dogs aren’t just “bigger” small dogs.
It’s Not Bigger Gear. It’s Better Gear for Big Dogs.
They sit differently. Move differently.
That’s why we design from scratch — rethinking fit, fabric, and function.
No loud Velcro. No awkward gaps. Just gear that works like it should.
Designing with Dogs in Mind
-
Tailored for Big Dogs
Real sizing for real dogs — with deeper chests, wider necks, and room to move. No awkward squeeze. No weird proportions. Just a better fit for big-bodied best friends.
-
Human-Grade Fabrics, Made for Dogs
We choose materials the way you'd want gear made for yourself — soft where it touches fur, structured where it needs to hold, and always tested for safety, comfort, and purpose. Every fabric we use earns its place.
-
Tested & Tweaked, For Real Life
Nothing launches without getting dirty first. We prototype, test, adjust, and repeat with real dogs and real adventures — until it just works.
-
Always Problem-First
We don’t chase trends. We design to solve daily problems: gear that’s easy to put on, fits right the first time, and makes walks, travel, and weather easier — for both of you.
“We don’t just make it bigger. We make it make sense — for big dogs.”
Real gear. Real dogs. Real life.
Loved by Big Dogs (and Their Humans)
We started with one problem. But word spread.
More big dogs — and the people who love them — found something they’d never had: gear that fits, feels good, and just works.
WOOFESSENTIAL isn’t just our story. It’s theirs too.
“Our gear lives where the mud is. Where the fur flies. Where the memories are made.”
Every product we’ve made started with a real problem.
Always Evolving — for Big Dogs
From the first raincoat to cooling gear and beyond, every WOOFESSENTIAL product began with a real need — something we felt firsthand, or heard from fellow dog parents.
We listen, test, and iterate.
And we’ll keep building gear that makes big dogs (and their people) feel truly seen.
