Meet the Maker

Hi there, I'm Anthony, I run Bark & Howl Designs, a pottery studio in Hillsborough, North Carolina. Pictured with me is Noodles, our older terrier mix.

Dog People at Heart

For more then 40,000 years humans and canines have been by each other's side. At Bark & Howl Designs we create items that help pet owners celebrate the inseparable bond between people and their dogs. All of the items we craft are done so with that love for dogs as the driving force.

Made in the U.S.A.

We are a family owned, small business located in North Carolina. At our pottery studio we produce ceramic items with domestically sourced clay and glaze. We work with stoneware, porcelain and earthenware clays.

Personalized Stoneware Dog Bowls

We cast our dog bowls with stoneware clay slip using our own hand-made molds. Stoneware is a dense, durable clay that is perfect for any dinnerware use.

Lead-Free, Food-Safe & Dinnerware Safe

All of the materials we use to make our dog bowls are safe to use for the production of dinnerware.
