The heart behind Puppyssimo

Hello, I'm Eleonora.

Puppyssimo began with love. 💚

The brand was inspired by my beloved dog Apolon, whom I rescued with his sister after finding them abandoned at just two months old. He is the heart behind everything you see here. What started as a search for beautiful, high-quality products suitable for sensitive dogs slowly became something much bigger.

As Apolon grew older and developed health challenges, especially after suffering a stroke, I became even more mindful of the products I chose for him. I wanted accessories that were gentle, comfortable, hypoallergenic, beautifully made, and designed to last. To my surprise, finding all of those qualities in just one product was not easy.

So I began creating them myself, which eventually led to the creation of a first hypoallergenic pet brand. 🌱🐾💚

Today, Puppyssimo is a home for dog lovers who appreciate quality, comfort, elegance, and thoughtful design. A place where timeless style meets wagging tails, and where every detail is chosen with both pets and their humans in mind. 💚

Although I studied law, creativity has always been my natural language.

I have always loved designing, drawing, sewing, painting, creating, and disappearing into my own little world of ideas. The truth is, I rarely sit still. Instead of resting, I simply move from one creative project to another. What began as hobbies slowly grew into businesses, and every brand I have built started with genuine passion before it ever became work. 💚

When I first started, my budget was small. Every euro I earned at my "real" job went straight back into my business. Because of that, I learned to do everything myself, so what started as necessity soon became something I genuinely loved.

Every Puppyssimo product, every design, every pattern, every label, every photograph, every piece of website design, every social media post, and every creative detail you see in my brands has been imagined, designed, sewn, photographed, handmade and created by me. 💚🌠

Sewing has always been one of my greatest creative joys. 🪡There is something magical about transforming beautiful fabrics into something both practical and meaningful. Puppyssimo allowed me to combine my love of design, craftsmanship, and dogs into one creative world. 💚🐾

I have always been drawn to natural materials, timeless elegance, and products made with care. I deeply appreciate things that are built to last rather than follow fast-moving trends. I really don't like fast fashion. My favorite products are the ones that feel like treasures - like that sweater of my mom from the '80s that still looks like new to this day.

That philosophy guides Puppyssimo. 🪡💚

I believe dog accessories can be elegant without being boring, playful without being childish, and luxurious while still feeling warm, approachable, and full of personality. I love clean lines, beautiful fabrics, soft colors, and thoughtful details, but I also adore the joyful, playful spirit that dogs bring into our lives. Puppyssimo is where those two worlds meet. ✨

Puppyssimo is not created by a team.

It is simply me, following curiosity, creativity, and the desire to create beautiful things for dogs and the people who love them. 🐾💚

Alongside Puppyssimo, I am also the founder of Luxiette, a whimsical lifestyle brand inspired by my beloved Luxy. Through handmade candles, wax melts, and carefully curated treasures, Luxiette celebrates cozy moments, creativity, and finding magic in everyday life. 🌙

Just like Puppyssimo, Luxiette was built from the heart and shaped by love for the one who inspired it. 💜

If you would like to discover Luxiette as well, I would be delighted, you can find out more here: luxiette.com and on Instagram: @luxiette.hr

As much as I enjoy creating for every season, autumn 🍂🍁 will always have my heart. 🧡 If I could choose, it would be October all year long. Crisp air, falling leaves, pumpkins 🎃 on every doorstep, ghost decorations, candlelit evenings, Halloween movies, oversized sweaters, and that feeling that something magical is waiting around every corner - that is my happy place, and a little piece of it always finds its way into my creations.

And while I am not naturally drawn to the heat of summer, when it comes to design, I have always been inspired by coastal, airy sensibility. I love interiors that feel light and effortless, yet still warm and lived-in - spaces filled with natural textures, soft neutral palettes, and beautiful wooden pieces that age gracefully rather than follow passing trends.

There is something deeply comforting about homes that feel timeless. The kind of places where everything has a purpose, where elegance feels natural rather than forced, and where even the simplest details carry a sense of calm luxury. That balance between a sense of ease, softness, and timeless charm that never tries too hard, but always feels just right is something I try to carry into my creative work.

So, thank you for being here. ❤️

Whether you discovered Puppyssimo through a bandana, a bow tie, a collar, or simple curiosity, I am grateful that our paths crossed. Every order, every message, every photograph of a beloved dog wearing something I created allows me to continue doing what I love the most: creating. 💚

I hope Puppyssimo brings a little beauty, comfort, and joy into your everyday adventures together.

Give your furry best friend an extra cuddle from me, and thank you for being part of this story. 🐾

With love,

Eleonora ♡
