Meet the Workshop Dog

Meet Monty our bouncy assistant!

Monty the sprocker (springer/cocker spaniel cross) was born in July 2017, and has been the resident workshop dog since winter that year. He LOVES visitors, and will announce their presence and bounce up to meet them at the door - don’t be surprised if a knock on the door is answered by a furry face and many woofs + waggy tail greetings you when you arrive!

Other than greeting visitors, Monty enjoys “helping” around the workshop (mostly by stealing things and posing for photographs), and supervising from his sofa in its prime location in the workshop.

When not at the workshop, Monty enjoys long walks, games of fetch, sleeping in unfeasible positions for prolonged amounts of time and watching food programmes on tv! You can follow more of Monty’s adventures on his Instagram.
Beautiful bespoke freestanding furniture, designed and made in Hampshire.
Woodworking and furniture making courses and tuition.
