The Fetch & Follow and Friends Pop-Up Dog Shop Tour Goes To Whitstable

London-based, creative pet lifestyle brand Fetch & Follow are packing up their bags and heading to the shores of Whitstable, as part of their Fetch & Follow and Friends Pop-Up Dog Shop Tour from 2 to 10 June, at the Show Off Gallery Space, 13 Harbour St, Whitstable.

Aimed at delighting dogs and the people who love them, the pop-up shop is a chance to see the brand’s much-loved range of stylish, functional and expertly-fitted coats, clothing, leads and collars in the flesh. Homeware such as dog bowls and beds will also be on show, along with select items for dogs and their humans from some of their favoured friends.

Taking centre stage is Fetch & Follow’s new Spring/Summer collection, which combines the Japanese philosophy ‘Mottaini’ – a sense of regret concerning waste – and the traditional Japanese patchwork mending technique of Boro.

Creative right down to the postcode, the Whitstable week-long pop up will take place at the Show Off Pop-Up Gallery, which is a popular local space for independent creatives, makers and artists to showcase their work.  Visitors to the pop-up shop can expect to enjoy complimentary and tasty goodies as they browse in-store.

Intending to make the most of their time in their temporary neighbourhood, the two and four-legged team members have also scouted out their top Whitstable spots to drink, dine, walk and hangout with your hound, which is being shared on their blog to help locals and visitors enjoy dwell time with their dog.

Fetch & Follow and Friends Pop-Up Dog Shop is open from Saturday 2 June until Sunday 10 June. Find them at the Show Off Gallery Space, 13 Harbour St, Whitstable, CT5 1AQ, which will be open daily from 10-4pm Monday to Thursday, Sunday, 10-5pm on Friday and 10-6pm on Saturdays.
