With all of the politics in the news these days, you may be wishing for a candidate that shares your values. One that will stand by you through thick and thin. Do you value kisses, playtime, and naps? If so, California-based Puppies Make Me Happy has the solution: Puppies For President!
Puppies Make Me Happy
We’re all sick of that Facebook friend who only posts articles about politics, right? For me, it’s my boyfriend (sorry, darling). I only post about dogs, so I joked to him that he should post more about puppies. Why couldn’t all politics be about puppies?
Then, when I discovered Puppies Make Me Happy’s Campaign Line, I made the following face:
(Disclaimer: I don’t actually think a puppy would be an adequate president in the real world, but isn’t it a lovely thought?)
Puppies Make Me Happy wonderfully sent me their Women’s Sleeveless Campaign Tee and their add-on Campaign Kit, which comes with a cap, bumper stickers, and several buttons. A custom tennis ball also shipped in the box. I am terribly in love with each and every item. The shirt is a delight to wear and OH SO SOFT. Also, I generally don’t wear hats, but this cap is converting me to a hat-wearer. The buttons now decorate my totes and my purse and I have a bumper sticker hanging loud and proud in my cubicle at work (Are my coworkers surprised? Absolutely not).
Behind the Scenes With Niels Skou of Puppies Make Me Happy
We spoke to Niels Skou of Puppies Make Me Happy about the company’s positive effect on the world:
Where are you located?
We are located in Southern California. All of our products are made and produced in Los Angeles. Made in the USA is very important to us.
How long have you been in business?
We have been in business for just over three years, but we have only been doing this full time for the last year.
How would you describe your business?
We make “The Happiest Clothes On Earth.” Our goal is to make people Happy. We want people to put on our clothng, and never want to take it off. If you wear something that makes you happier, you will be in a happier state of mind throughout your day. We call this the “Puppies Effect.”
What kind of items do you sell?
We sell clothing for humans and dogs.
Do you have any new or exciting items that you would like to highlight?
We are really excited about our new Page Me shirt because we think nostalgic trends are awesome and we want to bring them back. We are also trying to produce a Pucca Shell Necklace for dogs
Do you have any pets?
Yes we have a few different breeds in the company. Ian the designer is a beagle guy. He also dog sits for other dogs as often as possible. I am an English Bulldog guy.
What else would you like readers to know?
We just like to do cool stuff with cool people. Also, if someone if having a bad day or something bad happens to a celeb, we like to send them a “Cheer Package” to cheer them up.
If you had one tip to share with a dog owner trying to care for and spoil his or her pet on a budget, what would it be?
If you want to spoil your dog on a budget, get them a tennis ball. They are cheap and they last for a while and tennis balls Make Puppies Happy. Happy Puppy = Happy Human. And we throw in a tennis ball with every order as long as we have them in stock.

I’d vote for pups too! Anything’s better than the choices we have now. lol Thanks for sharing.
Pups are just filled with love and kisses! A little more warm and fuzzy than our current options haha
I can’t think of a better goal for a business than to make people happy.

Great idea – you’ve got my vote!

Too cute- I think we’d all like Puppies for President. Looking at Puppies definitely makes me happy.
Right? They bring so much joy!
YES! I vote Puppies for President too! Super adorable photos!
Thanks so much! 🙂
What a fun concept!! I love their commitment to make people happy and bring cheer!! That’s very welcome in this election year for sure!! And frankly, I’m not sure a dog really wouldn’t make a great president!! 😉
This election year, we DEFINITELY need a little happiness! Plus, all of the sadness in the news needs to be counteracted at least a little bit!
I am definitely in support of PFP!!! Cute campaign gear.
Isn’t it fun? I wish I had a car to put the bumper sticker on!
I love that their company’s goal is to make people happy and that they have a package just to cheer people up! Also, love that they also make dog clothing. I’m pretty sure Ruby would LOVE a puppies for president t-shirt!
Isn’t that GREAT? I wish all companies wanted to spread joy!
What a great concept! The products look well made too. Puppies for President is a cute campaign.
The items are definitely well–made! I was very impressed.
Um you totally crack me up and I love your enthusiasm and energy. Having met you, I know you are the real deal. This is fantastic!
Aw, thanks so much, Carol! 🙂 That means so much!
DEFINITELY!! Puppies or maybe KITTENS!! for President of the USA. Love this it did make me smile!
Glad it made you smile! 🙂
How fun! Puppies for President has my vote!
Yay! 🙂 I would love a puppy for president!
These clothes are so fun! Puppies could very well be a better president than a human could these days. I think kittens would do a pretty good job too! Perhaps we should stage a presidential debate between puppies and kittens and see how it goes. LOL 🙂 I think I would rather watch 2 hours of that on tv.
YES!!! I love this idea!
Such a great idea. This would make social media much more pleasant than all of the politics. Now we need a campaign for cats.
Right? I love being a part of BlogPaws and some dog groups because now my Facebook feed is primarily cute pets 🙂
I’ll vote for puppies any Day!
Two thumbs up for puppies! 🙂
What a cool company, I like the way these guys think! Beautiful t-shirt you’re wearing here. I must say, your “disclaimer” gave me a good chuckle, thanks for that!
Love & Biscuits,
Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them
Glad I made you chuckle! 🙂 I’m sure the founders would love it!
