About

We started with a golden and a husky. We stayed for the whole pack.

Retriever & Howl was born from love and loss. A golden-hearted companion who walked with our family from 2012 to 2024 — and Sunshine, a spirited Husky-Malamute mix who showed us that healing has four legs and a howl.

When we lost our golden, we needed somewhere to put all that love. So we built this.


We're a brand for the big-dog people.

The ones who rearrange their furniture around their dog's favorite napping spot. Who apologize for the fur but not really. Who have loved a dog so completely it rewired them — and who carry that love like a second heartbeat, even when the leash hangs empty on the wall.

If that's you — you're home.


What we make

Funny, heartfelt tees for Golden Retriever parents, Labrador loyalists, Husky handlers, Malamute admirers, and every proud rescuer who brought home a mystery mix and hit the jackpot. If your dog is big, fluffy, loud, wild, soft, or all of the above — we made this for you.

Every design is printed on soft, high-quality fabric built to last through walks, washes, and whatever your dog decides to do to it.


Our mission

Retriever & Howl exists to celebrate the profound, life-changing bond between big dogs and the people who love them. Through warm, witty, and heartfelt design, we honor every loyal companion — past, present, and future — and remind their humans that the love they carry is something worth wearing.
