    It started with a pile of beautiful leather scraps.

    When making leather bags, there are always pieces left behind - too beautiful to throw away, but too small to become another bag.

    So we started turning them into dogs + cats.

    What began as a simple way to give our leather offcuts a second life became one of our most-loved collections.

    Moss Dogs are made from three pieces of leather, with a little movement in the tail that gives each pup extra personality.

    Small keepsake. Big heart.

    Moss Dogs come in a playful mix of leather colors and textures - pebbled, smooth, even hair-on-hides. Some feel a little doodle-like, others bring Labs and retrievers to mind, and each one has a personality all its own.
