Why every dog needs one
A bow tie doesn't just look good — it starts conversations. Whether it's a Sunday market, a birthday or just Tuesday morning, a well-dressed dog changes the energy of every room they walk into.
Made for everyday wear, not just special occasions — lightweight, comfortable, and secure enough that your dog will forget they're wearing it. Everyone else won't.
- Handmade in small batches on the Central Coast of NSW
- Each bow tie is slightly unique — no two are made exactly the same
- Lightweight and comfortable for daily wear and special occasions
- Genuine leather Tinka & Co label on every bow tie
- Every print available as a matching human bow tie
How it attaches
Two elastic loops at the back slide directly over your dog's collar — no clips, no buckles, no fuss. In seconds, stay put all day.
Standard collar:
Fits any collar up to 4cm wide. Thread the collar through both elastic loops and the bow tie sits flat and secure — ready to wear.
Harness wearer?
No problem — add our adjustable dog bow tie strap (sold separately) and your dog can wear their bow tie with a harness, a lead, or without a collar at all. Shop the strap below.
Want to match your dog?
Add our human adjustable strap (sold separately) and wear the same print yourself as a proper bow tie. Every print comes with this option — because why should your dog have all the style?
Prefer to wear it differently?
Add a hairclip (sold separately) and wear this print as a hair accessory instead — one of our most popular add-ons.
Fabric & care
Fabric varies across the range — wool and tweed in The Dapper Edit, cotton and specialty prints in The Print Edit and The Signature Edit. The exact fabric for this bow tie is listed in the product details above.
Every bow tie carries a genuine leather Tinka & Co label, which means machine washing is a no — a little spot cleaning is all it needs.
- Spot clean gently with a damp cloth
- Do not machine wash, tumble dry or iron
- Lay flat to dry to maintain shape
- Avoid soaking — protects both the leather label and the fabric
