Brand Summary

Our journey began when our dog flatlined in the hospital, and everything changed. After he survived a near-death experience, we realized that people want more than just transactions, they want to belong to a community. This insight drives us to create spaces that go beyond traditional retail, fostering connections between dogs and their humans.


While major retailers like Chewy, Petco, and PetSmart dominate the market, there’s a significant gap when it comes to providing shared experiences for dogs and their owners. That’s where Puptqe comes in. We’ve built an ecosystem that serves as the connective tissue for these relationships through immersive experiences.
