About us

Thank you for browsing my online mercadito for pups!

I started this small business with the intention of incorporating my love of dogs and my Mexican heritage together into amazing dog products. Both the immortal Frida Kahlo and Mexican art are huge inspirations of mine and Mexican textiles are  gorgeous, festive and unique to every region of the country. I just had to incorporate them into new accessories and supplies for our four-legged friends (babies). 

Every fabric is handpicked and our items are handmade in Los Angeles. 

*Our initial line of collars use hand-braiding from Chiapas and are assembled in Mexico City*

A little on the name "Papalotl Pup"...The word papalotl means "butterfly" in the beautiful Aztec 'Nahuatl' language.

 

To quote Walter Mercado everything is "con mucho amor"!
