Hello friends, it is with sad news that I share the passing of our beloved CEO, Atze - The heart and soul behind OtterPop. For those that didn't know where the OtterPop name came from, our little Atze also went by Otter as a nickname, followed up with "OtterPop" like those beloved tasty frozen treats.
There is nothing better than a person being able to find an outlet that combines both of their loves - crafts and dogs. When I started OtterPop in 2019, I never would have imagined how far we would come, with orders sent to all 50 states! There were many late nights sewing in the craft room with Atze laying right by my side on the floor, as he inspected every single order.
It wasn't until recently that I had started to do vendor shows where my love for OtterPop really shined. I loved hearing you tell me about your dogs, your friends dogs, your grandpuppies, all of it. Hearing stories, sharing pictures, and getting to tell you all about Otter and how it all began.
I have closed the shop while I take the time to grieve this tremendous loss.
Thank you for your understanding.
