What is Cloud Doodles About?
We of course are a chic and fashionable boutique with cute dog accessories with cool handmade patterns. And, there is a little bit more to Cloud Doodles. So what are we all about? In this post, we want to share with you our mission, our goals, and how we plan to realize them.
Mission
We want to raise awareness about the benefits dogs have on human mental health and support organizations that foster the human-canine connection.
Goals
Our goals are to reach as many people as possible and get the word out, to help people connect through our platform, and to raise money to donate to organizations.
How we will achieve our Mission & Goals
Cloud Doodles Products
Our dog accessories are created to spread awareness while being fashionable and chic for you and your pet. Each pattern is hand drawn by Angela Tuckerman, CEO and is created with a message and a meaning behind it to remind people on a daily basis to prioritize their mental health and their dog’s mental health! A percentage of our profits will be donated to dog-related charities.
Which organizations do we donate to?
Giving back is one of the most vital action steps on realizing our mission. We will support organizations that facilitate research in this field and/or help foster the relationship between dog and human. Here are some of the organizations we plan to work with:
HABRI—stands for the Human Animal Bond Research Institute. They fund and facilitate research on the impact that pets have on the wellbeing of people.
K9 for Warriors—This organizations rescues dogs from shelters and train them to become service dogs for veterans experiencing PTSD and among other health problems.
Weekly Blog Posts
We will post blog articles weekly to inform our readers about varying topics regarding the dog and human relationship. Our topics will range from personal stories to articles on research papers. We will review dog supplies that can help facilitate both canine and human mental health. These posts are meant to provide in depth write-ups for our readers.
Sunday Stories Series
Our Sunday Stories Series is designed to give you real life personal stories of how a pup has helped their human(s) with their mental health and have improved their lives overall. This is a space for people to be vulnerable and share their personal struggles and successes and how their furry companion has been by their side. It is a space to get to know each other on a more intimate level. It is a space for us to collaborate with other accounts.
