  • Our Story: Creating Stress-Free, Stylish Walks for Dogs and Their Humans

    How Korriko Started

    Korriko Pet Supply began in 2018 in my small condo in British Columbia, Canada, when I struggled to find a harness that was both comfortable and cute for my French Bulldog, Zoey. Nothing on the market fit well or had fun designs, so I designed my own. What started in a tiny condo living room quickly took over every space in our home and eventually moved into a warehouse as demand grew. Zoey’s heart-shaped mark on her forehead inspired our logo (with the heart on the dog's nose): a reminder of the love that started it all.

    Meet the Founder: Marion & Her Passion for Dogs

    My name is Marion, and I founded Korriko at 29 years old. Now 36, I still pour my heart into making stress-free, happy walking experiences for dogs and their humans. Before Korriko, I worked in marketing and event planning, but my passion for creating high-quality, cute, and functional dog gear led me to build this business. My dogs are family, and I want the very best for them because I know how much joy they bring.

    The Problem We Solve for Dog Owners

    Finding a harness that fits snugly yet comfortably, is easy to put on, and includes thoughtful features for both dogs and humans is tough. Most options lacked padding, adjustability, or simply weren’t fun to wear. At Korriko, our goal is simple: stress-free walks, comfort for dogs and humans, and playful, stylish designs that make you both smile.

    Overcoming Challenges: From Blue Paw Co. to Korriko

    Originally, I launched as Blue Paw Co., but had to rebrand to Korriko Pet Supply in 2021 due to trademark issues. Every step of developing our harnesses—from sourcing materials to perfecting the fit—was a learning experience. It's taught me patience, perseverance, and the importance of quality. Today, our products reflect those lessons, with designs that are thoughtful, functional, and fun.

    Our Values: Comfort, Safety, Style, Durability, Community

    At Korriko, we stand for:

    • Comfort: Padded, adjustable harnesses for dogs and humans

    • Safety: Secure buckles, D-rings, and no-pull functionality

    • Style: Fun, playful, and kawaii-inspired prints

    • Durability: Long-lasting materials built to withstand daily adventures

    • Community: Building connections with dog lovers and their pups

    From Launch Day to a Community of 27,000+ Happy Dog Parents

    From day one, the response from dog lovers was incredible. On opening day back in November 2018, we received 10 orders from followers of Zoey’s Instagram account. I was scared to launch our website and maybe no one would order. Seeing dogs enjoy their first stress-free walks in Korriko harnesses is the most rewarding part of this journey. It's still my very favourite part of owning this brand!

    I receive several messages a week about how surprised our customers are with the quality and fit of our harnesses. One customer mentioned having tried over 20 different harnesses and our Exploration Lite No-Pull Harness was the best fitting dog harness of them all! Stories like these keep me motivated every day.

    It's Personal: Zoey, Momo & Our Kawaii Prints

    Zoey, my soul dog, sadly crossed the rainbow bridge in 2023, but her legacy lives on in every product. Her sister, Momo, is now our “Doggy CEO,” testing all our harnesses and posing for photos. She's a happy, goofy cream French Bulldog who's full of life. You'll often see her in our product photos and on our socials.

    Fun prints (like food-themed kawaii patterns) make each walk a little brighter. And Zoey’s heart-shaped mark? It inspired our logo, a daily reminder of love, joy, and the reason Korriko exists.

    As a small family business, we aim to expand further across Canada and internationally, bringing cute, functional dog products to more pups and owners around the world. Our mission is simple: help people create happy, memorable experiences with their dogs - one stylish, stress-free walk at a time.
