Brand Tone

humorous, playful, witty, and irreverent

Brand Values

• •Humor and Fun
• •Originality and Cleverness
• •Style and Sophistication (with a twist)
• •Quality (within the novelty context)
• •Celebration of Pet Pampering

Best Practices

• •Embrace the Pun: Wordplay is your best friend. Actively look for opportunities to incorporate clever puns related to dogs, luxury, and the parodied brands. This reinforces the witty and humorous tone.
• •Keep it Light and Playful: Avoid overly serious or technical language. The copy should always feel fun, approachable, and slightly cheeky. Even when discussing features like durability, maintain a lighthearted feel.
• •Speak to the "In-the-Know" Pet Parent: Address the customer as someone who appreciates humor, style, and enjoys pampering their pet with unique items. Acknowledge their understanding of the parody.
• •Focus on the Shared Joy: Highlight the fun for both the pet and the owner. The toys are as much about the owner's amusement and the "Instagrammable" moment as they are about the dog's play.
• •Maintain a Hint of "Aspirational" (Parody) Language: Use words and phrases that echo the luxury brands being parodied (e.g., "elegant," "sophisticated," "iconic," "fashionista") but always with a clear wink to the fact that it's a dog toy. This reinforces the parody without taking itself too seriously.

Social Perception

Customers generally perceive the brand as fun, cute, and clever. The brand is recognized as a successful and legally affirmed parody brand.
