Accessories – San Diego

BalloonDog was created from the inspirations of traveling and our love for animals. Our passion for traveling stems from the privilege of traveling to different cities where we have learned the perspectives of tourists and locals. That being said, our love for animals, specifically dogs has excited since we were children. We have also been able to visit our places of origin, where our families and ancestors are from. Ilya, was born in a small town named Mogilev located in Belarus, and shortly arrived in the states as an infant. He\'s grown up on the streets of SD all of his life, but has never forgotten his culture. Cecy, on the other hand, has family from Mexico as well as the Philippines. Being of both ethnicities, she was born and raised in San Diego, but has always been heavily influenced by her cultures as well. These characteristics of our lives have brought us together to understand different cultural backgrounds that the world brings. Our love and passion for animals heavily incorporated into the brand. Our very own dachshund, Zero, is the one we tied to a balloon, though we have another pup Leo who also serves as an inspiration. With the adventure of travel and the unpredictability of pets, BalloonDog was born. This is the identity that we want to transfer to our audience. Our business goes further than apparel, BalloonDog is about the love for animals, culture, and travel all in one brand.
