We are a small family owned business located in beautiful Columbus, Wisconsin, nestled closely to the bustling and trendy city of Madison. Fueled by the need for creative collars for our four dogs, we began to sew feverishly. Handfuls of collars later, Corgimo Collars was born! Owners and creators, we are Phil Scharine and Megan Page. We make everything ourselves in small numbers so you can have a truly unique product.

Megan received her MFA in Printmaking from the University of Wisconsin in Madison in 2005. Her training is extensive, having worked as a printers assistant and teaching several printmaking classes in the Art Department. During her course work Megan became involved with the Textile Design School. There, she learned fabric design, from dyeing to pattern design and printing her own fabrics. This training has been paramount to Corgimo Collars, helping to create designs with a totally unique twist not seen anywhere on the market.

Phil, Megan's husband is an avid bicycle and dog lover. They met during graduate school when Megan worked at a local Madsion bike shop. Phil openly admits to his less than artistic ways, but none the less Megan utilized his sharp mechanic mind during school. Phil became one of the best art assistants ever, and adapted quickly to the weird and wonderful world of the art student. The rest is history. Marriage, a new place and a massive yard finally gave them the opportunity to have the dogs they had been talking about for so long. Phil has the business mind that most companies can only dream of. He manages all of the complicated stuff, sews, and cares for the pack.

It all started with one shelter dog named Charlie. Three dogs later, the pack is full and wonderful. Who knew that the combination of art and dogs would become our passion?
