There’s something truly special about watching your small business grow — from the first handmade product shipped out of your garage to seeing your brand featured on one of the biggest retail platforms in the world.
At Chelsy’s Toys, our journey has always been about passion, pets, and persistence. What began as a heartfelt idea to make safer, more enriching toys for dogs has evolved into a brand loved nationwide. And now, we’re thrilled to share our latest milestone:
This means customers can now enjoy the same high-quality toys with fast, reliable shipping and easy checkout directly through Walmart.com. Whether you’re a long-time fan or discovering our brand for the first time, shopping Chelsy’s Toys has never been easier.
From Shopify to Walmart: Our Growth Story
Our journey started modestly — with a simple Shopify store and a mission to create durable, safe, and engaging toys for dogs of all breeds and sizes. We believed that dogs deserve play that stimulates both their minds and instincts, without the risks that come with cheaply made alternatives.
As we grew, we expanded to Faire, making it easier for boutique pet shops and small retailers to carry Chelsy’s Toys in their stores. Then came TikTok, where our videos showcasing real dogs playing with our Snuffle Balls, Tug Toys, and the new Enrichment Tube began to connect us with pet parents everywhere. TikTok helped us share not only our products but also our story — one that resonated deeply with dog lovers who care about quality, safety, and enrichment.
Our next big leap came with Amazon, where our commitment to handmade quality and innovation reached even more homes across the country. It was a pivotal step that proved our products could compete on a large scale while still maintaining the heart and authenticity of a family-grown brand.
And now, joining Walmart Marketplace with Walmart Fulfillment Services feels like the natural next step in our evolution. Walmart’s trusted logistics, nationwide reach, and customer-first approach perfectly align with our mission to make safe and enriching playtime accessible to every dog.
