A letter from our founder, Nathalie

2025 was a year of growth for Chommies. The kind that stretches you, reshapes you, and asks you to pay closer attention. As we grew, something became clearer than ever: why we do what we do.

At Chommies, we make accessories for dogs to simply be dogs. But more than that, we’re humans who let dogs inspire us to slow down, to stay curious, to live with our senses wide open. In watching them, we grow too. Not just as a brand, but as people, and as part of a shared planet.

In a world that often feels rushed, generic and disconnected, we choose intention over mass production. Craft over convenience. Heart over shortcuts. 

As Jane Goodall once said, "to plant a garden is to believe in the future". That’s what we’re doing - planting seeds. Honouring the relationships between the work we do, the people we serve, and the dogs we love so deeply.

As we step into 2026, our commitment is simple: to make more time for simple pleasures, and to live more dog - always present, never regretful, with unleashed happiness. To grow without losing our soul. To keep things personal, even as we expand. To let every product, every experience, feel considered. Like a handwritten note in a loud world.

We believe joy matters. Pleasure matters. Time with your dog, time outdoors, time with the people you love - these aren’t indulgences, they’re essential. Dogs know this instinctively.
We’re not here to blend in. We’re here to build something meaningful, beautiful, and deeply human together with you, through you. 

So here’s to 2026.
To dirt under our fingernails (or paws).
To dogs that can be dogs (not humans)
To choosing to be real, every day.
To slow down, create and craft.
To becoming better Chommies, together.

With gratitude,
Nathalie
