Daniella

Dog Mom to Mochi · Founder of Leashes & Lattes

Hi, I'm Daniella — a Miami-based dog mom to Mochi, my impossibly picky mini dachshund. Mochi is as selective about her food and products as I am, which means I've spent more hours than I care to admit reading ingredient labels, watching unboxing videos, and cross-referencing vet recommendations just to find things she'll actually use.

After all that research, I figured other dog parents deserved to benefit from the work — so I built Leashes & Lattes. Every review here is based on real testing, real experience, and the very high standards set by one very opinionated dachshund.

If Mochi approves, it makes the list. If she turns her nose up at it, I tell you exactly why. No sponsored fluff, no affiliate-first recommendations — just honest takes from a dog mom who's been there.
