How many of you love personalized pet products for your dogs? I won’t lie, I am crazy about them. My girls have always had their own special blankets and things that showed off THEIR personality. With my malamutes, it has always been easy because they are just so happy and personable. My big problem with many pet products that are customized, however, is that they can be extremely expensive, especially if I want something that my large dogs can actually use. Luckily, we recently found the perfect solution that isn’t only adorable, but cost effective – PrideBites™.
Never heard of PrideBites? Don’t worry, I hadn’t either until recently. Once I saw that they made personalized dog toys, personalized dog blankets, personalized beds, and even personalized coats, I knew it was the perfect choice for me, especially at prices that were only a fraction of what I had seen anywhere else. Best of all, every one was truly adorable. What I loved the most is that you get so much more than just picking out various colors and trims for many items: they create a hand drawn image of your pet on your chosen product, which looks truly amazing. This means you can get even a custom Frisbee with your dogs portrait and name. After seeing some pictures of their various personalized pet products, I figured this was the perfect time for Ivi to have her own custom blanket.
What shocked me the most about creating a blanket from PrideBites was just how much they let you customize. When you create a blanket, you choose:
- Size
- Top Color
- Piping Color
- My Dogs Name
- Font and Color of My Dogs Name
- Multiple Dog Photos for the Custom Drawn Image
I have to say the hardest part of getting my blanket was the wait. Waiting 3 to 4 weeks for something this cute was tough, and I was a bit nervous about having high expectations. Once the blanket actually did arrive from PrideBites, I was truly wowed. Not only was it great quality, but Ivi’s image was truly amazing. I loved seeing her adorable smile and there wasn’t a question at all who it belonged to in our house.
Even Ivi tilted her head when she saw it for the first time. As you can likely see, the blanket turned out absolutely adorable and I don’t think I could be happier with the results.
To my surprise, I am not the only one who fell in love with the idea of personalized pet products. Recently, PrideBites was so confident they had a great idea, they decided to take a risk and appear on ABC’s hit television show – Shark Tank! For those who don’t know about the show, it is where companies talk about their company and their plan in hopes of getting financial investors to take their company to the next level. If you are like me and don’t have cable, you can watch the segment below.
Want to purchase one of these adorable blankets for your own pup? Currently, PrideBites offers this blanket in either microflecece or Sherpa styles, both in a weight that is comfortable for dogs to keep them from overheating. Best of all, it is machine washable, making it great for traveling dogs like mine! You can create your own personalized blanket here or check out PrideBites other personalized pet products! Just don’t be surprised if you fall in love with them just as much as us!

Susan Bewley says
Thank you! Ivi is our sweetie and is even prettier in personality. 🙂 If we didn’t have more dog beds than I knew what to do with, I would get another. All of their items are so cute and inexpensive.

ellen beck says
My Odon is all black which would be tougher, but yours turned out great. I love the idea of personalized things like this!
Susan Bewley says
I was actually so worried with how dark Ivi is that it wouldn’t turn out right. I was so impressed and know I will be ordering some for Rylie too!

This would be a great gift for my friends with pets!
CASSANDRA MARTZ says
My dog could use a doggy blanket. These are adorable.
barbg says
Such a cute Dog you have! This would be a nice product for all pet owners.
Sherry Compton says
We watch Shark Tank, and this is a cute idea. People like personalized things and we pamper our pets. They have their own style, too. While they don’t care, it just adds a cuteness to their items.
Cheryl Chervitz says
Great idea. I will probably be getting something from them!
Patricia Mingozzi says
I love these pet products need to get some for my sisters dog.

This might be just what my pup is looking for. I appreciate the review on this and th information on obtaining it.
Regina Elliott says
I had no idea about PrideBites ! But this review is really good so good in fact I had to go look it up so WELL DONE
Jeena Bittenbender says
What an awesome idea!! I have 5 Chi’s that are older. They have 3 blankets on the couch at all times. The funny thing is that I love in Florida and it rarely stays cold here. But they love to be a steady 80°. I will look into these blankets and maybe order some for them. Thank you for your review.
Susan Bewley says
You are very welcome! Isn’t it funny how they love blankets and staying warm? The first time one of my dogs got under a blanket I was so worried they would overheat with their double coats! Nope – they just love it and consider it comfy. I would love to see a picture of your babies under their blankets. Chis are so cute!
Kimberly R says
I love it, my dog usually destroys everything he comes in contact with though.
Susan Bewley says
Oh my! Yes, things like this aren’t very good for heavy chewers. I think some of their toys are okay. I know I”m going to have to put the blanket up safely once baby Rylie starts teething!
Pat Schwab says
Ivi is so cute and I really want to know what breed she is. My mom would love all of these products for her dogs.
Susan Bewley says
Ivi is a full blooded Alaskan Malamute. 🙂 Their products really are super cute. I’m considering getting some toys from Rylie too that are personalized. Maybe not with her name but cutey sayings (like owned by puppy).
KATE SARSFIELD says
I’m sorry but I just don’t get people treating animals like humans. Animals who live with us deserve our respect and their dignity, not to be treated as so-called ‘fur babies’.
Susan Bewley says
Hi Kate, in my household, dogs are treated with respect, love, dignity, and as part of the family. Malamutes especially have been living with humans for over 10,000 years and are one of the most ancient of dog breeds. As a breed, they want to be as close to humans as they can and have adapted to enjoying some of our food, our comforts, and human interaction. My malamutes have always loved blankets. They will drag one around the house and usually claim one that we give them as our own. They also love memory foam and choose it over other beds (wha? Dogs like to be comfortable too – who would have guessed?).
For me, these blankets are a cute and give some of their toys personality. Ivi especially has learned that her toy box (based on color and her picture from repetition) is where she can find her toys and put them away (something we are working on).
Lois M. says
Aww, what a look on her face – so sweet! 🙂 And a nice idea with the blanket too! 🙂
Jennifer Rogers says
I had never heard of PrideBites! Ivi is gorgeous and so is her new blanket. The prices are very reasonable!
Susan Bewley says
The prices were what shocked me the most about PrideBites. I am considering getting some cute thing for Rylie too since Ivi’s turned out so awesome. IT is awesome nice having some cute keepsakes of Reya that look just like her. 🙂
Cindy Merrill says
Those items look fantastic and I’m sure they’re high quality. Do they carry items for cats? I don’t have dogs, but I do have two sweet elderly cats.
Sohair says
These are so cute,I love all animals and all pets should have a blanket or something different they can enjoy,I looove it
Rosanna Gail Vaughn says
We have never used PrideBites before But after seeing the blanket I think we will soon 🙂
Nancy Burgess says
Very nice blanket looks just Ivi.Love these pet products going to order blanket for sure.
Susan Bewley says
I love how they caught her smile and personality with the blanket too. 🙂
Tricia Hope says
I love this idea for pet owners to be able to personalize a gift for a pet.Will look at getting some for Christmas!

Annmarie W. says
Our Ozzy would love that blanket! The winters get so cold here in PA and loves to cuddle up to keep warm!
DebbyM says
I have never heard of Pride Bites before…and I often watch Shark Tank. I love the thought of being able to have my pups picture on her blanket…especially since there aren’t a lot of products with Lhasa Apso on them. Thanks for the information….can’t wait to peruse the site and order something. Waaa Hoo!
Thalia Miller says
What a gorgeous dog. The blanket is pretty cool too! Love that you can personalize it.

I’m not familiar with Pride Bites but they sound like a wonderful company! I didn’t see any mention on their website if they offered personalized items for cats; I would love it if they started to have cat items, too! Thanks for posting.
