About this episode
I found out about Pittie Clothing Co. as I was researching for Episode 11 with Sarah Lauch & Live Like Roo Foundation. I love their bright, fun patterns. As a pit bull owner, I know how difficult it can be to find cute clothes that properly fit your dog.
Erin Crowley founded Pittie Clothing Co. so she could finally have matching pajamas with her dog. But after having experienced negative public reactions to her own lovable pit bull dog, Erin’s greater mission is to help pit bull dogs look more approachable and defeat stereotypes.
Erin & I discuss:

- Pittie Clothing Co.’s origin story and the struggle of pit bull owners to find cute clothes for their dogs;

- The multitude of ways that Erin & Pittie Clothing Co. give back to shelters, rescues and the community;
- Erin’s hope that pit bulls in pajamas will have make them look more approachable and non-threatening;
- Erin’s own experiences receiving negative reactions to her dogs;
- How breed discriminatory housing policies lead to more dogs in animal shelters;
- The fun of themed dog walks;
