About
Dog Milk is a website dedicated to modern dog design, inspired by Jaime Derringer’s love for her two modern pets, Lulu and Beans (right). She felt that there needed to be a place where modern dog lovers can discover new products and sniff out what’s beyond the chain pet stores. Whether an innovative pet feeder, cool dog tee, or modern dog bed, Dog Milk strives to bring you the most cutting edge and modern design for your very best friend.
Dog Milk is not a retail shop, nor do we sell anything from this website. We try to direct you to a website with every post, so that you can inquire directly. All of our funding comes from our supportive advertisers and affiliates links. If you are interested in supporting our site, please click here.

 | Jaime Derringer, Founder and Executive Editor Jaime daydreams about modern sofas and gets excited about lamps. She and her husband, along with dogs Lulu and Beans, operate JD2 Media and the “Milk” sites. Jaime has been noted as an expert on design trends, speaks on design and design blogging, contributes to a multitude of design blogs and acts as a consultant. |
 | Katherine Becker, Mingus, and Dottie, Contributors Katherine wrote and managed the dog blog phetched for a couple of years before joining the Dog Milk team. She lives with her husband and two dogs in the mountains of North Carolina, a locale that provides enough camping, hiking, shopping, good food, and craft beer to keep her more than happy. If she ever won the lottery, she’d most definitely spend it all on live music and airfare to New York City. She works in the legal field, which unfortunately has nothing to do with dogs, fashion, art, or music, but it does pay the bills, so it’s good enough for now. Katherine’s husky mixes, Mingus (6) and Dottie (4), serve as a constant source of both inspiration and botheration. Mingus is too smart for his own good, boasts beautiful symmetrical markings, and can clear a 7-ft fence with relative ease. (And Katherine wishes she had a nickel for every time she’s said, “Yes, Mingus does sort of look like a coyote.”) Dottie, prettier than she is smart, is a rough-and-tumble sweetheart who enjoys barking, pulling on the leash, and Brussels sprouts. |
 | Christine E. Martinez and Miles, Contributors Christine is a freelance interior designer from Oakland, CA and creator of LAMA designs. She has spent the last several years searching the globe for fantastic products and undiscovered talent. With her passion for travel and love for shopping off the beaten path, she dreams of making hard to find goods available to everyone. She writes daily on her blog about Latin American art and design and the adventures of being an entrepreneur. Miles is a well-mannered and even-tempered Miki (Maltese, Papillon, Japanese Chin) with a heart that’s as big as his underbite. He enjoys snuggling on the couch, chasing squirrels in the backyard, meeting other pint sized pups, being smuggled into movie theaters, and his morning treat. |
 | Beans, Advisor Beans is a male Boston Terrier, mostly black with spots of white. He is about 23lbs and has been told that he has “lovely markings.” He enjoys sleeping under the covers, snuggling, treats, and playing ball. His smells have been known to clear a room. When he gets really excited, his back legs shake. He is a bit neurotic. |
 | Lulu, Advisor Lulu (aka Bubba) is the opposite of Beans in almost every way! She is an all-white female American Bulldog with a cute black dot on her butt. She is not a pitbull, but she does not mind being mistaken for one! She is a little over 70lbs and very muscular, but wouldn’t hurt a fly. She enjoys snow, water, belly rubs, and food. Lots of food. She can be quite lazy, with bursts of crazy energy followed by long naps. She’s a couch potato. |
