Growing up, my love for Whitney Houston knew no bounds. My mom used to sing “The Greatest Love of All” every morning, as if it were a personal affirmation, and honestly, it was. I learned every word of The Preacher’s Wife soundtrack before I even knew what half of what she was singing about meant, and when Whitney dropped “It’s Not Right but It’s Okay,” the millennial generation gained its first taste of empowerment in a leather trench coat. There was just something about her, the command in her tone, the sparkle in her eye, that made you believe she was singing directly to you. The power in her voice wasn’t just melodic; it was hypnotic like a siren somewhere deep in the Bermuda Triangle.

So, naturally, when I found out that my love for Whitney could finally extend to my fur baby, I had to hit “Add to cart.” Because sharing the joy of Whitney’s legacy with my dog? That’s the kind of crossover event I didn’t know I needed.

And because no Whitney moment is complete without a favorite track, mine has always been “So Emotional.” There’s something about the way she belts out the chorus that captures pure, unfiltered passion—a quality any pet parent can relate to when they see their dog’s tail wag at full volume. That’s precisely what makes this shirt such a joy; it’s not just an accessory, it’s a tribute to one of the greatest voices and songs of all time.

For pet parents who love to wear their hearts and their heroes on their sleeves, this shirt fits right in with other feel-good pet fashion finds like Chewy’s ‘Hug the Dog’ Tote and the nostalgic Life Is Good x Chewy Beagles Crusher Tee collaboration.

Whether your dog’s more of a “How Will I Know” kind of pup or prefers the slow burn of “I Have Nothing,” this tee lets them channel diva energy with every strut. It’s campy, nostalgic, and unexpectedly wholesome. It is a perfect blend of humor and heart that honors a pop icon while celebrating the love between pets and their people.

Because let’s be honest: if Whitney taught us anything, it’s that love, especially the kind you share with your pet, is always worth singing about.
