Hermosa Collars, a locally-owned premium dog collar and leash brand, recently launched its line of products that give back. Part of the sales from the collars will go to charities that support military veterans and ocean health.
“Summer and Tylor Gilbert, a husband-and-wife team, launched the brand after seeing the need for comfortable and durable collars for their 100-pound silver Labrador, Rio,” Summer said in a press release. “Hermosa Collars is more than a business to Tylor and me, it has become a passion project. For the first three years we had Rio, we could never find a collar that was functional, comfortable, durable and had unique designs.”
That prompted them to explore their new business venture.
Summer said in the press release that they were inspired by other organizations who use their means to support organizations.
“…We feel it’s our responsibility to do our part as well,” Tylor said.
Hermosa Collars offers a variety of colors and creative designs to complement canines. Prices range from $35 to $45. More information can be found online.
Rebranding
HearingLife
3553 Camino Mira Costa, Ste. C

San Clemente’s Family Hearing and Speech is now rebranding itself as HearingLife, which is part of its companywide identification efforts.
“We’re a network of individual private practices that are not really affiliated, working under a local identity,” said Brady Schwab, the sales director of the West Coast. “Patients were not aware all over the country about this. It’s really an opportunity for us to unify our brand and utilize patient care around the country.”
Under the HearingLife umbrella, the company is able to do screenings by appointment but primarily sells equipment for hearing augmentation, including some that have blue tooth technology.
“We’ve got a number of brands across the country that had developed in certain regions and some existing HearingLife stores were in business and rebranding under that umbrella,” Schwab said.
The business in San Clemente has been operating for the last 20 years, he said.
“The technology has never been better, the options have never been as broad; it’s really a great time to explore communicating better,” Schwab said.
