Going From Strength to Strength
After a successful Christmas period the boys sign an extended lease to continue trading. The hard work is starting to pay off.

Let customers speak for us
I have ordered the boredom boxes twice now and also the rabbit ears. I have 2 shorkies and they absolutely love everything. You offer a fantastic service and price and will be definitely ordering on a regular basis. Keep up the excellent work. Thank you
Brilliant service and my Labrador absolutely LOVES everything included! Will be purchasing again when he’s had them all!
Fantastic quality dog food wouldn't go anywhere else. We used to use a different brand of food and my older dog constantly had ear infections so we did our research and decided to try Betty and Butch well within a week or so his ear infections cleared up and his coat became shiny over time back to his old self. Both my adult dogs adore the food and we are always getting comments on how shiny their coats are and how fantastic they look.
