Today we have now served well over 150,000 customers and our business, whilst still small and family focused, occupies over 5000 square feet and is full of amazing dog products for the active and not so active pup alike.

We are proud to be a leading independent partner of world class brands such as Ruffwear, Dog Copenhagen, Kurgo, Kong, Non-stop dogwear, K9 Sport Sack, Rukka, ChuckIt!, Kong, EzyDog and many more.

These quality brands are all complemented by a full range of dog care accessories and our own brand of food, accessories and treats.

Customer service, fast delivery, providing quality items, timely advice and all with a smile is at the heart of everything we do. We dont get it right all the time but this is always our objective.

“Great piece of kit to go with doggo's ruffwear harness. Fits flush, attaches firmly to the well designed loop on the harness and has held up well against frequent trips into the undergrowth. Light is bright and I really like the choice of colours.”

Excellent Laura, I hope it helps you to keep track of doggo's adventures for many walks to come!

“Excellent bright light that we attach to our puppy's collar. Especially good when she escapes from the garden into the neighbouring field in the evening! And walking on unlit lanes, or in the fields on foggy days. Only downside is that it tends to move to the underneath of her collar (Ruffwear) since it's heavier than the rest of the collar. We are going to get a second one so it balances.”

“This is the second beacon I have purchased so my dog wears one on both sides of his harness for maximum visibility. Highly recommended.”

Aha, Im not the only one - living near dark skies country in the past, good to have two on different colours so you know which way they are moving :-)

Sorry to hear that you lost this item. It is very rare people lose them but given the nature of its size and attached to dogs that love to explore it does happen very occasionally. Personally I've had the same Beacon for two years and that is attached via the clip which is quite sturdy but there is a further ring that can tie the item to the garment / collar like an ID tag would. We never want to see our customers out of pocket so please reach out to us and we will subsidise a replacement for you.

“This is expensive and light is good, but doesn’t attach robustly enough. The first one was lost within 5 minutes and the second would have been as well were it not for a zip tie I used as insurance. Admittedly this is on a spaniel who charges in and out of cover, but if you’ve got a charger I would steer clear and definitely secure with a zip tie.”

“Ruffwear beacon purchased for those dark nights, good choice of lighting with three colours, steady or flashing, great secure fit to our Springadors harness, early days but very impressed so far.”
