Dog Mom Jewelry: Handmade Jewelry for Pet Lovers

There's not much else like the love of a pet. If you have one, you know what we mean. And even if you don't, it's easy to spot the bond between a pet and their person.

Around here, we're dog people. We've got a handful of dog moms and pet parents in the MIMOSA bunch, including a few of the dogs themselves. 

In your search for best dog-mom jewelry for yourself or dog-mom gifts, we hope you love these pieces as much as we do. They've been ordered as a reminder of everyday companions and a keepsake to honor sweet pups who have passed on.

Dog Mom Gifts: The Collar Cuff

In the last four years, we've lost three dogs.

Two of those old friends met us as newlyweds, saw us bring home babies, and watched them grow. They were family, and we were better for knowing them. Before we knew it, our house was loud with love again. This time, littermates, a brother and sister (Lou & Josey), and we all fell for them, head over heels.

Devastatingly, we lost Lou this past Christmas. He lost his short battle to Pythium, a rare disease with no mercy. He was young, and we thought he'd still be sitting on the front porch when the kids were old enough to move out.

To say our dogs are part of our family is an understatement. We travel together, play together, cuddle together, do nothing together, do everything together. Losing them requires you to reorient yourself to a new way of moving through your day without a lump of love at your feet, at your side, in your lap. Losing them means silence where there were gushy "I love yous" and ridiculous made-up nicknames. It means a soft pillow where there used to be soft paws and sleepy eyes that love you back with all their heart. It means your heart aches in a way you almost forgot it could.

My kids don't offer jewelry advice often, but during those intense days of grief, my son came to my desk and said, "You should make something for Lou."

I knew what he meant. Something visible, something tangible, something to keep his memory skin-close. 

The MIMOSA Handcrafted Collar Cuff Bracelet

Making a piece to honor our pets was on my list for years; I just hadn't figured out what. We went back and forth, but then it hit. A collar. A symbol of the sweetest belonging. With tags for finding your way home and a name called by the ones who love you most.

The Collar Cuff is for all the Lous we've ever loved.

Dog Mom Gifts: Birthstone Jewelry

One more meaningful way to enjoy (or gift) personalized dog mom jewelry is to add your fur baby's birthstone to the jewelry. We don't always know our pet's birth month, so you can also use the birthstone associated with their gotcha day, the day they were adopted, for a sentiment that's just as sweet!

Many of our MIMOSA favorites can have a birthstone added to them, like our Live Out Love Heart Pendant. You can add up to 4 stones to personalize your pendant.
