Michelle Simmons
After shutting down my photography studio of 12 years (The Suitcase Studio), I was inspired to emBARK on a brand new adventure that combined my passions for dogs, art, and celebrating individuality. Every design is hand-drawn by me & hand-printed whenever possible, and is infused with a touch of whimsy and sarcasm... so that Furbaby Fashion is more than just clothing—it's a joyful expression of self and a celebration of the unique bond between humans and their furbabies.
My journey has always been about more than just creating beautiful things. It's about making people feel seen, accepted, and loved for who they are. My previous work as a photographer, where I helped clients discover their inner beauty, has seamlessly transitioned into my new venture. Each piece of Furbaby Fashion is crafted with the intention to uplift and inspire confidence, encouraging everyone to embrace their uniqueness and feel good in what they wear.
Originally from Orange County, California, I've been calling Bend, Oregon my home for the past 10 years... where I live with my husband and two rescue dogs, Mona and Nibbler. When I’m not designing, you can find me enjoying craft beers, watching hilariously bad movies, paddling on Sparks Lake, or hanging out with my furbabies at the dog park. My mission with Furbaby Fashion is simple: to create what feels good and makes me happy, and to share that joy with others who might feel the same.
Nibbler
Woof woof! I'm Nibbler, the high-energy dynamo with a story as vibrant as my personality. My early days were spent on the streets of Mexico, but my life took a wonderful turn when I was rescued by The Rawley Project, flown to Oregon, and found my forever home at just 4.5 months old. They told my humans I was shy, submissive, and demure, but the moment I walked through the door, I sprang to life and haven't slowed down since!
Named after a character from Futurama, I totally live up to my name by giving playful nips whenever I'm excited. I'm a loudmouth who demands attention, but my humans love me for it. I'm super smart and incredibly fast and agile, climbing rocks and barking at other pups to chase after me. I absolutely adore water and am learning to be a paddleboard pup, though I can't resist a good roll in any mud puddle I see.
With my tigger-like bounces, I can leap over canals and bushes in a single bound. I'm always ready for an adventure and bring a burst of energy and joy to everyone I meet. Let's chase some tails, splash in some water, and celebrate the fun and fabulous life of a dog!
Mona
Woof! I'm Mona, the lovable rascal with a heart full of spunk and a nose for adventure. My journey started on the tough streets of Mexico, where I learned to be resourceful and resilient. After bouncing from foster home to foster home for over a year, I finally found my forever family, and I've been living my best life ever since.
I adore napping in the sunshine, chasing after pesky houseflies, and am absolutely obsessed with hunting lizards. At home I might come off as serious, but take me to the park and you'll see my goofy side shine as I play with other pups and people. And let's be real, I always want whatever my sister & frenemy Nibbler has!
Despite my knack for a little manipulation to get my way, my charm is irresistible. My human says I bring a unique spark to their life, and together, we're all about celebrating individuality, joy, and the pure, unfiltered love that only a dog like me can give. Let's spread some tail-wagging happiness and enjoy the sunny side of life!
The O.G. Adventure Buddy
Jasper
🌈 Hello from the Rainbow Bridge! I'm Jasper, the tiny but mighty mini wiener dog who lived life to the fullest for 12.5 wonderful years. Gone too soon, but my spirit and memories remain strong. (F cancer!) I had a big personality and a Napoleon complex to match, making me a force to be reckoned with despite my small size.
I was Michelle's first adventure buddy, joining her on the big move from Orange County, California to Bend, Oregon. I wasn't the biggest fan of other dogs, but I absolutely adored people… especially the ladies. Treats were my ultimate weakness, and I’d do just about anything for a tasty morsel. And let’s not forget my love for burrowing in blankets, so my humans always had to check for blanket lumps before sitting down!
I may be gone, but the love and joy I brought to my family will never be forgotten. Here's to all the snuggles, adventures, and treats we shared. I'll be missed, but my pawprints are forever etched in their hearts. 🌈🐾
