Animal Lover and Pet Owner Stores

Design With a Heart for Animals!

Since November 2009, GGLLC principal Colleen Gratzer has maintained two online stores that feature her original pet lover designs. The idea for the two pet owner/animal lover stores was born as a way to combine her two biggest passions: design and helping animals. The goal is to raise money and awareness for homeless shelter animals. All proceeds are donated to Frederick County Animal Control, Maryland, the county's only shelter.

The stores offer a wide selection of custom merchandise—including iPad and iPhone cases, t-shirts and other apparel, coasters, ornaments, hats, mugs, refrigerator magnets, keychains, greeting/note cards, postcards, stickers—which make unique gifts for pet owners and animal lovers of all kinds (dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, iguanas and horses). Some feature digital color photos of local shelter animals.
