Connecting dog parents through pawsome stories
About Shades Of Pooch
Shades of Pooch is a dog community based in Colchester, built on the love we all share for our four-legged companions. At its heart, it’s a space where dog parents can connect, feel heard, and celebrate their bond with their pups — through stories and shared moments.
Our goal is simple: to create a close-knit community where every doggo moment and heartfelt memory finds a home. Whether you have a question, a funny picture, or a story that tugs at the heart — this is your space to share it.
And this is just the beginning.
As our community grows, we’ll be hosting pawsome in-person events — from dog walks and meetups to story-sharing circles and creative experiences. We see a future filled with joyful connections among dog lovers like you.
About the Founder
Hi, I’m Isha Potdar, the hooman behind Shades of Pooch.
In my journey so far, I’ve been a designer, innovator, writer, and business operations associate in the pet care industry. But above all, I’ve always been a dog person. Starting Shades of Pooch has been a personal and heartfelt decision — one that brings together everything I love.
This community is lovingly dedicated to my dog Bruni, who passed away in December 2023 at the age of 16. She’s been my companion, my muse, and the quiet inspiration behind every role I’ve taken.

My passion for building a dog community in Colchester stems from a simple wish — to always be surrounded by dogs and celebrate them in every form. I hope you enjoy being a part of this community as much as I love creating and nurturing it.
