Just a reminder that I’ll be at the Totally Locally Leek Market this Sunday along with 70 other fabulous makers and bakers between 10.30-3.00 and I’ll have lots of lovely collars, leads, bows and other accessories for those pawfect Christmas pressies for your pooch!🎄

My online shops are now closed as I’m already at capacity for Christmas orders I’m afraid, but you can catch me at Leek on Sunday!

Have a great weekend guys! 😁

Last call for Christmas orders guys! I know it’s super early but I’ll be closing my shops at some point soon this week as I’m already nearly at capacity for orders for Christmas!

Also to let you know I’ll be at the Totally Locally Leek Market this Sunday which I can’t wait for! Its a one off sadly as I can’t make them now on a regular basis but I’ll definitely be there from 10.30-3.00 on 4th December and I hope to see some of you there! 🎄

Lots of you have asked so I’m pleased to say the Christmas ‘Harris Tweed’ ranges are back on the website now guys!

With me now having limited capacity I’d advise ordering soon if you are looking for the pawfect pressie for your pooch as I’ll probably be closing the shop earlier than normal this year once I’m at capacity.

What will be in your basket for Santa Paws this year?

Hi guys, hope you are all well?

Well Autumn has definitely arrived hasn’t it which suits me just fine as it’s my favourite season by far! Who else loves Autumn? 🍂

You guys are loving the Amber Herringbone range this week and I have to admit, it’s definitely one of my favourites too! 🧡

Rest in peace your Majesty

You will be missed by many including your furry family 💔 🐶

Hi guys, hope you are all well?

Sorry I’ve not been present on here for a while, I’ll update you on where I’m at right now. I’ve had a tough few weeks recently as I’ve been trying to juggle several jobs! Like a lot of small businesses for whom this is their full time income like me, the huge price increase in supplies and utilities is crippling. My supplies have literally doubled in price! I made the decision to go back to a full time 9-5 job a few weeks ago which is why I’ve been really quiet.

Whilst I’d love to think I have the stamina I had in my 20’s, I’ve had to admit that I can’t do it all. I’ll still be here and making but will be managing my shops by opening and then closing for periods so I can manage orders. I simply can’t make enough stock for markets sadly so will be attending the odd one here and then when I can.

I hate to let people down and this has been a heartbreaking change for me to have to make but I haven’t disappeared completely and just want to thank you all for your support. You’ll never know how much it means to me! ❤️🐶😘

How are we all doing today? I’m so glad it’s a little cooler today and am trying to get as much done as possible before this very hot weather descends! 🥵 I’m already longing for Autumn to arrive! 🤣

Did you know I have 63 different ‘Harris Tweed’ fabric choices! I actually didn’t realise it was as that many until I counted them!

That means there will always be the perfect choice for your pup and you can mix and match them with different lining colours or other tweed colours for no extra charge.

What’s your favourite combo? 🤔
