Inspired by our long standing Peranakan heritage in Singapore, the “Pawranakan Project” features Peranakan inspired bandanas with a playful twist of doggie elements. With cookie-cutter Western brands and fabrics saturating the local dog fashion scene, two Singapore brands, Ohpopdog and Good DogPeople are determined to create and promote Singapore-inspired dog apparel that is artisan crafted, conceptualised, designed and printed from scratch, truly something that they can call it their own.
As a responsible pet company that puts pets, people and planet first, Good Dog People works with social enterprises such as The Animal Project and special needs artists like Sijun to share the positive message that people with special needs are gifted with abilities and talents in different ways too. The collaboration with Sijun is a wonderful collection of bandanas with a social mission for the dog community, reinforcing the message further that every abandoned dog deserves a chance to be accepted and loved again.
