About
Animals Doing What began as a creative holiday gift idea for founder Alli Boehm in 2022














That initial spark grew into an apparel brand dedicated to a novel idea: showing animals in delightfully human scenarios.


Using graphic design and her sewing skills, she stitched her family members'
favorite pet—or spirit animal doing their favorite human activity.
From a wiener dog playing tennis to a golden retriever driving a jet ski, the results were quirky, hilarious, and a huge hit.




Today, ADW continues to grow, one quirky design at a time, always dedicated to bringing originality and joy to everyday apparel.
