Meet the Dogs Behind Waggy Tails at Home

Rescue dogs. Big personalities. The real inspiration behind our personalised dog gifts.

If you’ve ever wondered who’s really running the show here at Waggy Tails at Home, it’s not just me — it’s my pack of six lovable, cheeky rescue dogs. Each one has their own story, quirks, and charm, and they’re the heart and soul of every product I create.

We’re all about personalised dog gifts and homeware for dog lovers – but behind every cute mug or wall print is a real dog with a waggy tail and a whole lot of character.

So, let me introduce you to the furry faces behind the scenes…


🐾 Mila – aka Ronnie Barker

Mila might be little, but she’s convinced she’s the official security chief of Waggy Tails HQ. Affectionately known as Ronnie Barker, she’s a bundle of mischief with a bark that could scare off a postman at 50 paces.

She takes her self-appointed role very seriously — barking at everyone, keeping the whole pack in check, and making sure no squirrel ever gets too close. Mischievous, loyal, and full of personality.


🐾 Nippy – The Adventurer (and Sofa Snorer)

Nippy is a gorgeous little Dachshund who’s full of curiosity and mischief. She spends her days exploring every nook and cranny she can get her paws into – and her evenings fast asleep on the sofa, snoring like she’s run a marathon.

She’s funny, fearless, and definitely the spark behind some of our more playful designs!


🐾 Miley – The Mouse Hunter

Nippy’s sister Miley is laser-focused on one thing: hunting mice in the field. Honestly, I don’t think she ever thinks about anything else! She’s quick, clever, and always on a mission.

Miley reminds me why our products are made for real dogs with real passions (even if that passion is pest control).


🐾 Perry – The Cuddly Sidekick

Perry is basically a living teddy bear. He’s soft, sweet, and just wants to be involved in whatever’s going on — whether that’s designing a new print or snoozing through a photoshoot.

If you’ve ever bought a product and thought, this just makes me feel happy inside, you’ve got Perry to thank.


🐾 Lulu – The Tiny Boss

Now this one… Lulu might be small (a Chihuahua crossed with a Jack Russell), but don’t let her size fool you. She’s full-on Mrs Feisty Pants and 100% convinced she runs the household.

She brings sass, spirit, and a little chaos to the mix — and we wouldn’t have it any other way.


🐾 Cookie – The New Kid with the Big Ears

Our newest recruit, Cookie, is an adorable Heinz 57 with the biggest ears you’ve ever seen. He’s cheeky, clever, and already part of the gang like he’s been here forever.

Cookie’s wide-eyed curiosity is a daily reminder to stay playful and keep things fun — exactly what Waggy Tails at Home is all about.


Why Rescues Rule

All of our dogs are rescues — and honestly, they’re all super dogs. They make me laugh, they make my house feel like a home, and they’re the heartbeat of everything I create.

Every time I design a new mug, poster, or personalised print, I think of them — and of all the amazing dogs out there who deserve to be celebrated.


So… Who’s Your Waggy Tail?

Whether you’ve got a sassy Lulu, a loyal Perry, a guard-dog-in-training like Mila, or a wild little Miley at home, we’ve got dog-themed gifts and home decor made just for you.

You can even personalise them with your own dog’s name, photo, and personality – because every dog deserves their moment to shine.


Thanks for meeting the team behind Waggy Tails at Home.
We hope they made you smile – just like they do for me every single day. 🐶💛
