Busy Raising My Dog Tote

Yes, it's a full-time job.

Busy raising my dog.

A bag for the dog-parent chapter - vet visits, training treats in every pocket, a small curly creature running the household. Hand-drawn lettering and a soft embroidered doodle on heavyweight canvas - reads warm, not loud.

Worn well in: the puppy class run-up, the Town Belt loop with a lead in one hand and a coffee in the other, vet waiting rooms, the dog park, and the 6am block walk because someone wouldn't settle.

Embroidered in Wellington · Heavyweight 100% cotton canvas · Shipping NZ-wide

FAQ

My dog isn't a poodle. Does this still apply? If your dog has curly chaos somewhere on its body - cavoodle, maltipoo, doodle of any kind, bichon mix - yes. If it doesn't, you can still wear it. The phrase covers everyone.

Will it hold the dog-parent starter pack? Yes - treats, poop bags, a spare lead, the vet card, and a half-eaten chew toy fit easily. Tested under real conditions.

Does it fit a laptop? Yes - up to 15" with room for a notebook and a water bottle.
