Our Story

Every dog walk comes with its own set of challenges—juggling treats, waste bags, keys, and your own essentials. Cocoa & Onyx was created to take the hassle out of those everyday moments, combining style and function in a way no other bag does.

Hi, I’m Felicia, proud dog mom and the founder of Cocoa & Onyx. I knew that challenge all too well. I created this brand because I was tired of the daily juggle: digging through pockets, fumbling with oversized bags, or realizing I’d forgotten something important mid-walk. It hit me during a training class with my pup, why wasn’t there a bag that actually worked for dog parents like us? One that was elegant but practical, stylish but smart?

So, I designed one myself.

That’s how the TreatPurse™ came to life — with dedicated compartments for treats, a built-in yet discreet waste bag dispenser, a separate compartment for your daily essentials - keys, phone, etc – and a sleek silhouette that fits right into your everyday life. I didn’t just want another pet accessory; I wanted to make walks feel effortless and enjoyable — the way they’re meant to be. This brand is rooted in my real-life experience and love for dogs, and every detail reflects that.

Our own pups are rescues, and they’ve inspired a deeper mission behind Cocoa & Onyx: to support the proper care and training of dogs so they stay in loving homes and out of shelters. Through partnerships and fundraising, we’re proud to give back to rescue organizations doing this vital work.

Cocoa & Onyx isn’t just about what you carry — it’s about how you experience those daily moments with your pup. It’s about convenience, comfort and ease. What began as one dog mom’s solution has become a thoughtfully designed brand committed to making dog parenting easier, more joyful, and a whole lot more stylish for you.
