Just like this time last year, we're dedicating the 26th of August to the furry YesColours community, our best friends and partners in crime, fun and colourful (and happy) living. Happy International Dog Day from our team and the helpers of our home decor community... shall we introduce you to some of them? Actually, no need to answer that, here they are.
Merla.
Merla is the furry companion of the talented Jessica Sowerby from @thehousethatcolourbuilt and her partner - Ricky. What a babe!
Merla is proudly posing in Jess' home office, decorated with our Calming Pink and Calming Blue paint colours. What a dog. What a palette.
Barbara.
Barbara is so badass that she definitely makes a great pair with our edgy, otherworldly and insanely cool Electric Blue paint colour. She doesn't look particularly excited in her model role but we love her vibe anyway.
Barbara photographed in front of her favourite Barbara Blue (as named by her owner Leah @leah.mcclelland) background. Our Electric Blue paint surely makes a stunning backdrop for humans and dogs alike.
Rupert.
Who doesn't know Rupert, really? He's the child of our own Lead Colour Consultant - Emily @houseofharnasz and makes regular guest appearances on our Instagram and TikTok profiles. Not to mention he creates his own colour combinations too! What can we say... like mother, like son.
Just like his mother, Rupert also likes creating colour combos (even though his face expression on that photo says otherwise). Check out his latest Miami-inspired colour combination here.
Helen.
Helen is such a stunning lady and, as her owner - Ashley @ashprime1, would refer to her, 'the apple of his eye'. She clearly makes a great model too and the way she complements our Mellow Orange paint colour on the walls is simply flawless.
Helen and our Mellow Orange paint surely make the perfect pair. Not a bad colour combo either!
Floyd.
Such a good boy. So good that he's happy to help not only with your dinner, but with your weekend decorating plans too. His mum Hola @hosky_r is definitely lucky with a charming guy like him.
Floyd's reminder: always get a paint sample before you commit to the paint colour. What a wise boy.
Ari.
Meet Ari - the most popular pug in New York City, and certainly the most fashionable one too. His mum - Maitri @honeyidressedthepug makes sure he's surrounded by colour and funky homeware items all the time, and their matching outfits simply melt our hearts every time we see them.
Ari caught mid-snooze in Maitri's bedroom, decorated with a statement wall in checkerboard pattern painted with our Friendly Pink and Joyful Lilac paint colours.
Greg.
One of our first dog models, Greg's dedication (in exchange for treats, of course) got him posing for quite a while in front of a wall painted in our Serene Blue paint colour. What do we say, shall we give him a commission for every Serene Blue paint pouch or sample pot sold? We thought so.
Greg and his Serene Blue sample pot - a match made in heaven. Don't read the message on his collar... we've warned you.
Benz.
Oh, to be a dog that belongs to a YesColours team member... Benz is facing a life that's simultaneously a blessing and a curse - you get to sleep a lot during team meetings but you're also forced to be the backdrop of our Designers Fandecks and Swatch Keyrings... He's not complaining though, and neither is his dad - Julio.
Bambi.
Look closely enough and you'll spot the pup. Here's Bambi, surrounded by our Friendly Pink paint colour on the walls and photographed by his part-time carer - Georgie @georgiewebart.
Melvin.
This stunning boy definitely deserves a reward or two. Treats our our Swatch Keyring? We'll let his mum Victoria @victoriawilliams._ decide.
Sadly our product range doesn't include dog treats but you can surely get our Swatch Keyring from us. Your dog might not appreciate it but you definitely will.
And, of course, we couldn't resist but share our team members Emily and Julio with their furry children. Enjoy the cute photos below and go hug your dog (or someone else's dog... who cares?) right now. Happy International Dog Day from us!
