Unique new store caters for both home and pet market


Dog owner Alex Scales has opened a unique boutique in Grimsby catering for the home, gift and pet markets.

Called Two Spotty Dogs after Alex’s two pet Dalmatians Molly and Archie, the store aims to provide customers with fun and quirky products.

"I really just wanted to open up something a little different around Grimsby that was quirky, yet affordable,” Alex told the Grimsby Telegraph.

"I had noticed that there weren't really any independent shops offering fun and creative items around the town, and there certainly wasn't a boutique for pets.

"We hope to have something for everybody and every animal as we have luxury treats, collars toys and baskets for your pets and furniture, homeware and other gems for everybody else."

The store has been open for less than a month three weeks but already business has been brisk. “People seem to be excited about what the shop has to offer."
