About Us
Mijo & Bambi was founded in 2008 while living in San Francisco with 2 small dogs who were always shivering in the chilly windy weather the city has to offer pretty much all year round. Growing up alongside her Grandmother, who owned a clothing factory in Oakland, California, Christine Lopez had a head start in sewing and pattern making at a young age. After working in the fashion industry since 2000 in areas of New York City, southern California, and San Francisco, Christine Lopez decided to put her Tech Design and Design skills with human apparel and footwear to use to create dog apparel that is practical, comfortable, and wearable for the active small dog. Mijo & Bambi is proud to produce high quality items, while using eco friendly, recycled, and remnant materials whenever possible. Each piece is handmade and manufactured in downtown San Francisco, California.
SAFETY
Although it's fun to dress up your dog, you should always make sure your dog is relaxed in the clothing and able to move freely. Our products are designed to be functional and your dog should have no problem running and playing while wearing Mijo & Bambi clothing. Always supervise your dog while he or she is wearing clothing. Not all dogs agree with wearing clothing. If they don't like it, don't force it.
LOCAL PRODUCTION
Mijo & Bambi are proud members of SF Made, an organization who supports all companies who produce locally made goods. Check out their website for more info at www.sfmade.org
GIVING BACK
Mijo and Bambi's goal is to bring special attention to all of the millions of animals euthanized each year due to overcrowded shelters unable to care for them. 3% of all proceeds are donated to animals in need.

Hang or lay flat to dry. *For our fabric harnesses with leather, be sure the leather is completely dry (may take a few days) before using again in order to avoid stretching out the leather.
