We all know the true struggle of attempting to dress our pets in clothing, or at least we can attest to the horror stories we’ve heard. And, if there’s one thing we know for sure (this goes out to all our feline parents out there), apparel—especially in the hat department—doesn’t mix well with cats. On the other hand, our canine companions will practically allow you to put anything on them as long as there’s a treat involved. The Texas-based brand, Club Huey, creates holiday collections and apparel for dogs and humans, and people are going crazy over it. If you’re looking for inspiration for some pet promo products, this is a good place to start.

Club Huey is a lifestyle brand run by two people, but they have help: Their French Bulldog, Huey, approves the designs. The company has dog clothing, human clothing, multiple holiday collections and accessories.
For its holiday collection, the brand has Thanksgiving, Christmas and even some apparel items left from Halloween. The Thanksgiving apparel might be our favorite, because who doesn’t love a clever Turkey Day themed tee to dress their dog in?
This “pour some gravy on me” design makes us wish that someone would create a parody of the Def Leppard song to go along with the shirt.

I think we can all relate to this “feast mode” tee. Sadly, it’s not made in adult sizes.

While Frenchies are the main breed featured on the website, these tees are made for all dogs—big and small. Or, if you don’t have a pet yourself, there are plenty of totes, beanies, sunglasses and more to go around.
We’ve mentioned before that pet products are a fun and underutilized niche in the promotional products industry, but Club Huey definitely opened the door to new possibilities with its parody graphic tees. Who knows? Maybe in the future we’ll see more creative designs and phrases on promotional pet products. Clearly, there’s a market for them, and there are plenty of opportunities for clever, memorable products.
