Our Story - Pup Caps
It started with a simple belief: our dogs have as much personality on the outside as they do on the inside.
Pet parents were already dressing their pups in sweaters, shirts, and bandanas. But something felt unfinished. Just like we grab our favorite cap before heading out the door, we wondered - why couldn’t our dogs have their own?
That simple idea became Pup Caps.
Created by a lifelong apparel designer and dog lover, Pup Caps brings the same attention to detail, craftsmanship, and style found in great human accessories to the world of dogs. Each piece is thoughtfully designed to fit comfortably, photograph beautifully, and add that perfect finishing touch to a dog’s personality.
Because a great hat doesn’t just keep the sun out of your eyes.
It tells the world who you are.
And now, our dogs can do the same.
The Team
Linda Snyder-Tagavi, Founder and Director of Pup-Caps, brings decades of experience in apparel design and manufacturing to the world of dog accessories.
After a career creating premium apparel, Linda now applies the same attention to detail, fit, and craftsmanship to products made just for dogs.
Of course, every design must pass inspection from her toughest critics - her Grand-Frenchies, Merlin and Bruno.
At Pup-Caps, we design and control the manufacturing of everything ourselves, which means - no mystery companies, no extra layers.
