It’s not been long but we have another update for you all!

Mum has just accepted a fab new job but this means that we won’t have time to carry on with Love Rupert as it is, so for now we are saying goodbye 👋

We have some stock to sell and are looking to sell this as a job lot, unbranded and ready for another potential business to use and enjoy(we will add some details to our stories but if you are interested please do get in touch)!

We know we have said it before but we cannot thank each and everyone of you for the last 2 years, we loved trying something new and loved seeing our little creations on our fur friends and well mum may well sit at her sewing machine again in the future!

But for now it’s on to new and exciting things for mum and me!
Thank you again 🐶

Hi fur friends

Boy it’s been a while, I’ve been busy having lots of family time with mum and dd but whilst we aren’t back back we thought we would put a few bits over on our Etsy so that you can get a little Love Rupert fix!

We are looking at some Halloween and (dare we say it) Christmas fabrics but for now we are just going through our bows and bandana stock and then we will see what the next few weeks hold for us!

For now follow our link in the bio and go see what we have and keep an eye out for new designs being added as we go!

Hope you are all well and can’t wait to see what you have all been up to!

It’s been a while!!

Hi fur friends! Well it’s been a little while since we have been on the grid but we haven’t been doing nothing!

Mum has been busy with her new job and making these amazing blankets for the even more amazing

The Doggy Deli is the new dog shop in town(they are in our old shop and in Kingsbridge), it’s amazing in there with so many amazing dog treats and food and of course some Love Rupert Goodies!

We still haven’t decided what’s next for us as a business but you can find some of our goodies in The Doggy Deli and so we are still around!

Mums next job is to make some very special bows for a good friend of mine who is going to Matchy Matchy at an even more special event and then who knows what’s next!

But fear not I’ve been enjoying some down time, extra walks, extra cuddles and of course the extra treats!

Stay safe fur friends

Todays the day! Our last day in The Shack!

We feel totally unprepared not only for today being our last trading day from our little spot on the high street but also for the celebrations happening all over the town and country! We haven’t got flags up or any special coronation goodies but we are ready too see some of you today, to get our amazing orders packed and ready to ship and maybe put a few of our last one offs and some treats on our stories later!

The website is now closed for our extended break and well yeah(we are a bit lost for words at the moment)! Stay tuned for some goodies today and potentially a soppy post later!

05/05/2023

Last chance!!!

Just a few hours left to get your paws and hands on not just our hoodies but also all our goodies before we take an extended break!!

Website will be closing for orders at 7pm TONIGHT with your last chance to see us in store tomorrow(10-4)!

We are going to be working on your orders from tonight so keep your eyes on your emails(we are going through collection orders first)!

Thanks for all your orders this week but let’s see if we can make today even better! Spread the word and help send us off with a bang!

04/05/2023

Well you know what to do, head to our website www.loverupert.co.uk to grab some of our remaining seasonal goodies!

After 7pm on Friday the website will no longer take orders and Saturday will be your last in person opportunity to get some goodies so be sure not to miss out!

Also another thank you to all those who have shopped with us so far! It means the world

Head to the website www.loverupert.co.uk and don’t forget if you’re local use discount code COLLECTION for free collection(postal charges will be removed)!

02/05/2023

Wow, thank you!!

What a start to our Market night! We are always nervous when we do a launch or market night, you never know if people will shop with you etc and last night(ironically) was probably the best reaction we have had!

Whilst it’s a bit bitter sweet that whilst our market night was driven by the closing of The Shack and us needing to take some time away, it has also shown us what AMAZING loyal followers we have and our regulars(plus some new customers) really do make us what we are and have kept us going through this challenging time!

So THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts!

But remember we still have goodies left and Market night is running till 7pm on Friday, plenty of time to shop!

If you can help spread the word, share your orders, share us, tag us etc etc then we would be eternally grateful(social media algorithms are terrible and currently only showing content to a TINY percentage of our followers)!!

So many goodies so go go go
Ps I let mum rights todays post as I’m sleepy after all the excitement!

28/04/2023

You guys asked for it and so we will be holding a market night on Monday 1st May(just 3 sleeps away)!

Our market night will be ONLINE only but if you are local I will create a code so you can have it for collection!

This will be your last chance to grab some bargains of past and present stock before our final trading day in store and a little break online!

We will also be opening up our Hoodies again for the evening!!!

Keep an eye on our stories for some sneak peaks and more info on how it’s all going to work!

Please do set your alarms and save some payday pennies to support us before we take a break to regroup and try to work out a way through the current times!

Who’s excited?

26/04/2023

It’s my Gotcha Day!

9 years ago today mum came to pick me up and make me part of her family! I’m so glad she picked me(I mean who can blame her) and let me take over her world!

Not sure I approve of the younger pics but I guess I look cute!

Happy Gotcha day to me!

The time has come unfortunately and this has not been an easy post or decision to make but we have unfortunately had to make it!

We know we have been very quiet recently(for more reasons than just this) and we have been making lots of announcements and changes but this was one we were hoping not to have to make!

Firstly this is not a goodbye forever, this is not the end! However we have made the very hard and sad decision to close The Shack! With footfall at an all time low, costs such as energy, shipping and materials rising all the time alongside a reduction in spending we can simply no longer continue to sustain the shop and our physical presence on our amazing high street.

We intend to continue with events where we can and would like to try and keep the business online(although this may be after a short break to regroup), as we love what we do and don’t want this little dream to end!

So what does all this mean! Well we still have The Shack till our lease runs out and this will be open on a Tuesday and Saturday for as long as we can. Some items of stock are going to be discounted so that you all get the chance to grab some goodies and then we will take a short break to regroup, refocus and come back new and fresh!

We will add more details and discounts to our stories over the next few days so keep your eyes peeled.

We once again want to take this opportunity to say thank you for all the support we have had up to this point! We have had the best year in the shop and can’t thank everyone enough for making it happen!

Rupert and Gemma 🐶😊

Happy Belated Easter to all our fur friends!

For today only head to our website and use code TREAT15 to get 15% off across the whole website!

Enjoy

Hi there!

Go online now to orders yours.

05/04/2023

Little reminder!

Just a little reminder that the Shack is now closed for the rest of this week! The website is still open and we are still taking orders and making hoodies etc so you can still get your goodies! For local people who would like to collect, shop, get some treats we can arrange for this to happen so please do drop us a DM!

We know it’s a bit inconvenient and so we want to thank everyone who has continued to support us as we adapt things! Stay tuned for more updates!

04/04/2023

Please bare with us whilst we get the new systems in place!

This week we will only be open today(Tuesday) 11:00-16:00!

Order online or via DM anytime!

Look at this handsome chap!

Our bows and bandanas have been feeling a bit unloved recently so we thought we would get the very handsome Bruce to remind you all how fabulous they are!

Here is Bruce wearing his Bruce bandana, named after him and personalised!

We cater for dogs of all shapes and sizes and if you are unsure of size get in touch and we can help you find the perfect fit!

But for now I think we should all admire this handsome chap!

Following on from yesterdays post we have this weeks opening hours!

This week is the last week before the changes start to happen(although we are closed on Saturday)!

Please do, if you can continue to support us and we hope to see you all soon!

26/03/2023

As many of you know times are tough, not just for businesses and our customers but also for those behind a business and we are unfortunately no different! We have not been immune to such times and so we have had to make some hard decisions that we wanted to share with you!

First of all we are NOT closing or disappearing however we are changing the way we do things to enable us to survive as a business and on a more personal level!

Secondly we hope that you can all understand and stick with us!

The Shack will be open on much reduced hours however our website will remain open as usual!
The Shack will be on on a Tuesday and Saturday as normal, however these will be the only days currently that you will be able to come in, browse and shop in store!
We will of course keep the website up and running and this will be open as usual and we are hoping our current dispatch times will remain unchanged!
For local customers we are looking at ways to ensure you can order with us and collect from either The Shack(when we are open) and our other local business Too Hoppy!

Everything is a work in progress so please do bare with us as we navigate this challenging time.

We also wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who has got us this far, it is definitely not the end but to survive we just have to adapt and so that is what we are trying to do!

We know we aren’t alone in finding current times hard and I’m sure it’s not over yet but we hope by making changes now we can secure the business long term and even if it changes slightly you are still getting products made with love ❤️

Please please do stick with us and continue to support us and if you have any questions please do get in touch.

Rupert and Gemma
