As a proud Mum of two tenacious terriers, is it any wonder that when I came across the lifestyle label Scruffy Little Terrier, my ears pricked up!
Michelle Burgess is the driving force behind this fun and innovative new pet brand. She designs all of her own products, which consist of an eye-catching range of homely gifts and fashionable attire for hounds and humans.
