Mother’s day is fast approaching and I have got some lovely lavender filled hearts embossed with Mum or Special Mum for you to give at £9.99, all handmade by Alex Gates.

In the shop in the next couple of weeks will be redhound for dogs new dog beds in two lovely new floral patterns.    We have small (60cm), medium (70cm) and large (80cm) currently in stock available in Jewel dog, Granite dog and Scottie dog designs.  “Orlando” my yellow Labrador just loves to sit in his Jewel dog in the window and watch the world go by – if you bring your dog to the shop he may even get out of the window to say hello!!

John Craven has just been filming here in Totnes for an upcoming feature in Country file on how Totnes is “bucking” the trend of small town high streets by still being predominately independent retailers and with very few larger chain stores.  Watch this space for when you can see this on TV.
