Gruff Pup

This signifies a pup as either being aggressive by nature, overprotective, in training or perhaps the owner just does not want anyone else petting them. Respectfully Stay Away.

Anxious Pup

This signifies a pup as being anxious and unsure either by nature or due to an awful history. Respectfully allow the animal to approach you if they want.

Chilled Pup

This signifies a pup that is easy going, happy to say hi to a human or a fur friend. Approach with confidence.

Pouncy Pup

This signifies a pup that has an overabundance of energy and can be quite intrusive and irritating to humans and other fur friends. Approachable but may irritate you or your pet with their jumping and over enthusiasm.

Understanding Our Colours

At EmoPups, we've based our bandana system on something we all instinctively understand - traffic lights! Just like you know red means stop and green means go, our colour-coded system uses these universal signals to communicate your dog's personality. Red tells others to keep their distance, orange signals caution, and green welcomes friendly approaches. We've even added a cheerful yellow for those enthusiastic pups who spread joy wherever they go! By using these familiar colour cues, we're making dog-to-human communication as natural as stopping at a red light.

Giving Back

At EmoPups, we're committed to making a positive impact beyond our bandanas. With every purchase, we proudly support two incredible organisations: the SPCA receives R3 and The Underdog Project receives R2 from each bandana sold at retail price. By choosing EmoPups, you're not just enhancing communication between dogs and humans - you're also directly supporting animal welfare and giving back to the community.

  • The Cape Of Good Hope SPCA

    The SPCA (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) stands as a champion for animal welfare in South Africa. Their mission is powerful yet simple: to create a country where all animals are protected and can thrive. Through dedication and compassion, they work tirelessly to save and protect animals while educating communities about proper animal care. Every day, they rescue, rehabilitate and rehome countless animals, fighting for a world free from animal cruelty. By supporting the SPCA through every EmoPups bandana sold (R3 per sale), we join their vital mission of creating a more compassionate world for all our furry friends.

  • The Underdog Project

    The Underdog Project uniquely transforms lives by bringing together two vulnerable groups: at-risk youth and shelter dogs. Through their innovative program, young people learn essential life skills like empathy, trust, and accountability by training shelter dogs using positive reinforcement methods. This powerful connection doesn't just help the youth develop crucial life skills - it also gives shelter dogs the training and socialisation they need to find forever homes. With each EmoPups bandana sold (R2 per sale), we support their mission of creating positive change, one human-animal bond at a time.
