Our story

A cherished name, a love forever.

Every pet has a special name. It might be their official name, or it might be that silly, sweet little nickname you whisper when no one else is around.

That name is your private language of love: a symbol of the unique soul who greets you at the door, warms your coldest days, and becomes a true member of the family.

At Pawdumi, we believe this precious bond is something you should never have to let go of. “Paw” is the gentle imprint they leave on our hearts, while “Dumi” is the cherished, personal love they hold. Together, they form a bond as bright and eternal as a comet’s glowing halo in the night sky.

We founded Pawdumi because time moves fast, but love deserves to be kept somewhere you can hold it. We turn their face, their name and even a tuft of their soft fur into bespoke keepsakes for everyday life: a charm on your keys, a portrait by the door, a mug for the first cup, a cosy crew, a collar for every walk. We treat every custom piece as a little treasure, made with care, so the warmth, joy and pure love they give you is beautifully kept.

Welcome to Pawdumi. Because their little paws leave an eternal mark, and their love is a precious treasure forever.

“Paw” is the gentle imprint they leave on our hearts. “Dumi” is the cherished, personal love they hold.

What we believe

Three little rules

  1. 1

    Everyday over “special occasion”

    We make things you use, not things you keep for best. A mug gets thirty cups a month. That’s thirty little hellos.

  2. 2

    Their face, not a stock dog

    Every piece starts with your own photo, placed by you. Or drawn by hand from it, if you’d like the illustrated style.

  3. 3

    One at a time

    Nothing sits on a shelf waiting. Each piece is made to order once you’ve checked every detail, then sent straight to you.

For dogs, for cats, for every little name

We’re a small company of dog people and cat people (and a few who are firmly both). We made Pawdumi for happy, ordinary days: birthdays and gotcha days, a new puppy, a thank-you to the friend who always asks after them, or just a Tuesday.
