Important New Stockist

I mentioned it last time, our newest stockist is White Stuff!!! yes, White Stuff, the wonderful clothing brand, who have the most dreamy shops and clothes, chose us to supply them with Dog Jumpers and Bandanas way back in January! We have made them 3 exclusive jumper designs and 3 exclusive bandana designs. 

The products were launched on their website last Friday, and featured in the Christmas Pull Supplement that went out with the Winter Catalogue last week also. As far as I know they are available in the Edinburgh and Kingston Stores. 

Here is a taste of what they chose

The beautiful Marine and Turquoise Tweed Gloucester Jumper 

The pretty Mulberry and Lilac Flower Gloucester Jumper

A stylish Red Bird Bandana

And the iconic Paisley Bandana

It seems like so long ago since I went up to White Stuff HQ to see the collection and select a colour pallet that led on to these designs. We are very proud to have been selected by such an iconic brand and to supply them with dog products for the very first time. 

So, if you live in Edinburgh or Kingston, you can pop in and see them in the flesh, or buy on line at

A Trip to Suffolk

It may seem like we are always on holiday here at Redhound, but it just so happens that our long weekend in Devon was closely followed by a week in the lovely dog friendly county of Suffolk. In fact this was our first week away for over 3 years! So we were really ready for it! 

Suffolk is a beautiful county and we stayed in a lovely converted stable that we booked through a great website www.bestofsuffolk.co.uk All of their properties are of a high standard, and lots are dog friendly too. The Stable had underfloor heating which is heaven to the whippets! We loved the peace and quiet, the only sounds at night were foxes and owls, and no street lights so it was very dark at night, great for restful nights and restorative sleep, both of which we needed! 

We found some lovely shops, I loved this one, so traditional, and they sold a bit of everything, from rabbit food to wool!

We ate some fantastic food, fish featured on all menus, and I got my fix of fresh crab, Bruno has discovered at the age of 9 that he too likes crab!

We found some amazing churches and they all had these beautiful hand embroidered cushions on the pews 

We went to some beaches and had fish and chips! And lots of sea air! 

 More embroidered cushions on pews and we saw The House in The Clouds at Thorpeness!

Then the week was over! We were supposed to be resting, and relaxing, but this doesn't come easily to us, so we had fantastic days out, great dog walks and lots of exploring. We even met the man who discovered the Hoxne Hord, the biggest single find of Roman coins, jewellery and much more. Now in the British museum he is 89 and still going out with his metal detected! A really lovely gentleman, and a great character!

So back in the Garden of England now, and in the throws of moving our business to an old Kent Barn, we truly have outgrown the house!

These two are glad to be home and back in the usual routine which involves lots of sleeping during the day, and less exploring and walking! They have a holiday every day here!
