CSA, the Canine Stick Authority, is a very serious organization dedicated to bringing order, rigor, and unnecessary bureaucracy to the wildly unregulated world of dog sticks.
Its flagship product, Stïk, is a premium, naturally occurring wooden retrieval instrument. Each Stïk is hand-found, engraved, and certified, with length, girth, texture, and overall vibe evaluated by CSA Inspectors. An engraved QR code links to the official CSA database, where every Stïk has its own page with photos, provenance, and inspection notes.
This serves no practical purpose, but it feels important.

How it works
Your Stïk journey has four simple steps:
- Acquire a Stïk either from the curated marketplace or by claiming one you found in the wild.
- Verify its authenticity by scanning the engraved QR code to confirm it’s a genuine CSA-certified Stïk.
- Claim your Stïk with a CSA account to document photos and your collection.
- Celebrate by receiving your official Certificate of Pawthenticity and preserve your dog’s legacy.

Have questions about CSA, Stïk certification, or an idea that probably shouldn’t exist but... absolutely should?
I’m always up for discussing absurd projects, thoughtful experiments, and anything that lives at the intersection of design, software, and fun.
The worst case is we both agree it’s ridiculous... and probably end up building something ridiculous for the world.
