## Sustainability story

Founded in 2009, Molly Mutt's first product was a patented stuff-it-yourself dog bed, which uses the customer's old pillows and blankets as the stuffing for their dog bed. 

Not only does this create a soothing bed for your dog (it smells like you!) but this approach results in 85% less carbon emissions than the production of traditional dog beds. 

Molly Mutt is also a accredited member of the Pet Sustainability Coalition, the only accreditation program in the pet industry that measures and verifies businesses' sustainability claims.
