The Story

Floofball is a female-founded pet startup bringing sports fandom into the pet aisle through parody-inspired toys and accessories. Founded in 2023 by Maggie MacDonald, Floofball designs and sells soccer-themed dog toys, plush balls, and team-color accessories that celebrate the joy of pets, fandom, and community.

Based in Atlanta, the brand started as a direct-to-consumer venture and expanded to wholesale marketplaces including Faire.com and Chewy.com. Floofball's product line includes team-specific soccer kits for dogs and has been featured on How I Built This Advice Line, where MacDonald discussed navigating rising DTC customer acquisition costs.

The brand is built around a simple but powerful idea: combining pets and sports. Floofball continues to grow its presence in the pet aisle with playful, sports-inspired designs.
