Ware of the Dog

Brooklyn, NY

Ware of the Dog is a popular dog accessory collection created by Jackie Rosenthal, a Brooklyn-based designer with a background in luxury fashion. The brand's name - and its signature safety orange accent - is a wink at the "Beware of Dog" signs found on fences throughout New York City, a sense of humor that runs through every design. Collections are built on bold, unexpected color combinations and an adventurous approach to construction, often juxtaposing contrasting colors, stitches, and materials in a single piece. Toys are crocheted from organic cotton and recycled t-shirt scraps, colored with OEKO-TEX certified Swiss dyes, and ethically made in fair-trade environments by craftswomen in Turkey and Nepal.
