TEMPORARY CLOSING SALE 📣 We’re setting off on an adventure to the UK 🇬🇧 which means we’re closing our shop TEMPORARILY. We hope that once we’re settled that side we will be able to pick up where we left off. This won’t be the last of us and we’ll remain a truly South African business at heart and in production of goods. Thank you to everyone who has supported our dream so far ❤️

⚠️ WIN A LEASH SLEEVE ⚠️
Wearable warnings are one of our passions and reasons why we started Max + Willow Shop. 💛 It’s a product we couldn’t find locally so we had one custom made many years ago. We saw the huge difference it made to walkies for Willow, our own reactive and nervous dog and it has brought us so much joy to see the difference it has made to the lives of other dogs.

We’d like to give one M+W Leash Sleeve away to a lucky pup.

The Mimi & Munch SA LickMat is a great enrichment tool to use during bathies. If bath time stresses your dog out, this is a perfect way to distract them and redirect their attention to something yummy. The suction cups makes it easy to stick the LickMat to most smooth surfaces! 😋

Big, bright and beautiful 💛 Our Nervous Dog Leash Sleeve is hard to miss when going for walkies. It’s an essential part of our walking gear 💪

M+W P**P LOOP 💩 Illustrated by myself and my husband Carl August Illustrations, I have worked long and hard on nailing the design to be a stylish one but also secure enough to hold a heavy bag of 💩 on long walkies.

It’s really important as modern pet owners to pick up your dog’s 💩 and sometimes carrying a steaming bag of it isn’t the most dignified. Simply attach the P**p Loop to the TOP of your dog’s leash and slip the knotted full poo bag to the P**p Loop. Problemo solved.

What makes our M+W Leash Sleeve special? We’re the first to launch this product in South Africa. 💛 Being a sleeve means it’s interchangeable between walking gear so you’re not stuck to a single lead. 💼 I personally also enjoy attaching it to my cross body bag strap sometimes too. 👀 The sleeve is larger in size which makes it eye-catching to passers by - exactly what you need when out with your dog.

We’ve worked on this specific design for a really long time to ensure it maximises its purpose. It’s a product that has transformed our lives and I am so thrilled that it has transformed the lives of fellow South African doggies too. Get a sleeve and be an advocate for your dog.

Happy International Women's Day 💪⚡ Today is a global day celebrating the achievements of women in the world. We can't do and be everything for everyone but making small changes to uplift females is making a difference. Being supportive of females does not make you a male hater. Empowering women does not make you weak. 💪

Each time a female-owned business succeeds, we all as women succeed.

Thank you for supporting our female-owned business. Through your support we are able to support other local female-owned suppliers and vendors.

We are fierce, fiery, sensitive, strong, capable, dynamic, underestimated, and damn amazing. ⚡

As the great Maya Angelou said, "Each time a woman stands up for herself... she stands up for all women"

BENEFITS OF MIMI & MUNCH LICKMAT:
The act of licking releases endorphins in your dog’s brain which in turn reduces stress and encourages calm behaviour.

🐾 Comes with free spatula.
🐾 Suction cups make it fixable to most smooth surfaces.
🐾 Distraction from stress triggers during grooming, bathing, thunderstorms and separation by promoting calmness.
🐾 Redirects energy and attention to something yummy instead of barking or fixating on stressful situations like visitors or gardening services.
🐾 Exercises the brain. Enrichment is just as much of a work out as physical activity. Your dog will be exhausted after spending 20mins figuring out how to clean the LickMat.
🐾 Helps keep your dog’s breath fresh by scraping off bacteria from their tongue.
🐾 Multiple “spreadable areas” for endless licking recipe creativity.
🐾 Human standard food-grade materials, BPA-FREE, PVC-FREE.
🐾 Freezer friendly and dishwasher (top rack) safe, suitable for both dry and wet food.

⚠️ Wearable warnings for dogs ⚠️

Used to communicate to the public that your dog requires special care. This could mean that they are deaf or blind, need space from other dogs or people, are in training mode and shouldn’t be bothered or are super friendly and are safe to interact with. All of our sleeves enable you as a pet parent to advocate for your dog’s needs in public. 💪

What makes ours different? They’re large and in charge and more obvious than a bandana or branded leash. I always harp on about this but I’m proud that we took so long to perfect our unique design through trial and error.
❗️large in size = extremely noticeable
❗️embroidered both sides
❗️water resistant and hard wearing fabric
❗️unique weighted base to prevent flipping
❗️reflective strips for extra visibility
❗️loop to hook the sleeve to your leash handle
❗️Velcro closure which = easy removal & can be attached to bag straps, waisted leads, etc.
