New Cards

We have just had some new H&L cards printed and many people ask who the dogs are - so I thought I would introduce them to you.....

Lily you all know well.  She is a Flatcoat Retriever and will be 9 next year.   She is still an important part of H&L and hopefully always will be.  Her kind gentle nature is second to none and she can lick away for England!!

Holly - my perfect little Muse Mongrel who will be 9 years old this November. She is still an inspiration and a joy.  Though any who have met her will testify she is the Princess Diana of H&L, she even can "do" the eyes.

H&L "Tell us a bit about Molo your Dalmation please Julia"

Molo was born in Lincolnshire but now lives in London with a Kenyan and a Bajan! His name comes from a river in Kenya. Molo is 3 1/2 years old but still has the energy and playfullness of a puppy especially when bouncing around on Hampstead Heath.

People often ask how old he is and comment on his lovely collars - he has three Holly & Lil collars amongst others but these are definately his and our favourite!

H&L "How did you first find us"

A friend said that I should get Molo one of your collars.....she said that if she had a dog she would get one!

H&L "Tell us a bit about Cyril your Bulldog please Michelle"

My name is Cyril and I am nine years old. I am a very confident young man and enjoy walking, swimming in the sea and playing which keeps my muscular body in peak condition. My other hobbies are travel, shopping for clothes and toys and going to dog shows where I am extremely competitive and like to win red rosettes and trophies. I am friendly and outgoing and enjoy receiving a lot of attention when out and about. My favourite foods are pasta, shortbread, chips, roast dinners and ice cream although I am only allowed these on special occassions as I have to watch my figure. I am strong willed and know my own mind but am also affectionate and very loving especially with my Mummy who dotes on me!

H&L "How did you first find us"

I found H&L through Google when searching for designer dog items for Cyril!

H&L "Tell us a bit about Tilly & Hector your Weimaraners please Cindy"

Hector and Tilly. Two Weimaraners - one Island - one owner - one nervous breakdown in progress! Not sure if appropriate but very germane :) I am going to try and get some more photos of them with their collars as the last one I sent was an old one of him digging the sand in the collar he had previously. It was just to show you the type of battering his Hol & Lil collar is getting.
I am really obsessing about "Pugs" collar now for Tilly. Think Hector would leave home if I got one like that for him but Tilly is a girly girl and it would look super.
I have finally, after much pushing and shoving, established my own blog for Hector and Tilly (never forgetting Jazz and Beau too).

H&L "How did you first find us"

I originally found you via Google search. I purchased a collar for my friends dog first, but coveted the skull and crossbones for mine!

H&L "Tell us a bit about Miss Martha your Chesky Terrier please Gillian"

2 ½ years old with her (almost) twin sister Lily, (not from the same litter). Lovely natured little dog – can be relied upon with children, puppies, strangers, other dogs in the park. Favourite pastime is chasing squirrels, cats and foxes, occasionally rabbits. Very inept hunter – no danger of her ever catching one Favourite place is Greenwich Park – good squirrel zone. We often have picnics there on summer evenings with her on constant squirrel alert. Very stubborn when she wants to be, usually when being brought away from the squirrel zones of the park – has been known to lie down flat on her back in protest and refuse to budge Very chatty – tells you when it is her meal times, or when she is ready to go out for a walk. Only moves on a need-to basis. Will bark from the bottom of the stairs to find out of it is worth her while to come up. Spends every afternoon with a group of 20+ dogs playing in the park – they have all grown up from puppies together and are fine friends. Many of them also have H&L collars! Dances on the spot in anticipation of meals, treats, food, front legs shuffling in excitement Always wears pink collars shows off her lovely silver colouring Is a bit if a floozy with male dogs, very much a flirt Is half dog, half teddy bear Loves cuddling up in your lap of the sofa

H&L "How did you first find us"

One of the fellow dog walkers told me about Holly & Lil, and since then you have become a firm favourite with all the other dogwalkers there. Martha & Lily still probably have the most varied collection of collars ......

H&L "Tell us a bit about Flower your Pug please Annette (in NL)"

Flower came to us at 4 months, she is born in Germany (Sachsen) and is from all American parents. She has a pedigree and her name is Open Your Heart fom Sachsen Adel, we cal her Flower. She is a very sweet girl, black pugs have more temperament than the fawn but flower is like the fawn very easy going. She loves al attention and her favorite place in on my lap J We hope she will be a mother this fall. She chares our home with 12 other pugs, and a smooth collie. She gets along with all other dogs and her sweet face steels many hearts, like her name she opens peoples hearts.

H&L "How did you first find us"

We first saw the Holly&Lil collars at Crufts, and could not stop talking about them to other dog friends, one of those friend gave me the Bell collar for Christmas last year, his own dog has one to. I get so many reaction when they wear the collar. Everyone likes it very much.

H&L "Tell us a bit about Bessie Boo  your greyhound please Carol"

Bessie Boo was given her collar for a THIRD BIRTHDAY Present by her two Boston Terrier best friends who knew how special Harris is to Carol and Bessie Boo. She loves to run on the beach near where the tweed is woven and actually wnt and met Donald John in her collar in June.

H&L "How did you first find us"

The Bostons first saw a Holly & Lil collar on their London Cousin , Lupin who got her collar at the Chiswick House Dog Day September 2009.

H&L "Tell us a bit about Gertie your Pug please Penny"

Gertie is a show dog and became a Kennel Club champion in May 2007, after which she retired to have a family. She is now a grandma, (as Ginny has just given birth to two boys). She is a proper lap dog and likes nothing better than cuddling up on Ian ’s lap or laying in front of the fire on her Holly and Lil sheepskin rug. She makes an excellent model, as she really enjoys dressing up in the beautiful coats and fabulous harnesses and collars produced by Holly and Lil.

H&L "How did you first find us"

I only learned about Holly and Lil when Sarah bought Eddie from me. Eddie is Gertie’s son.

Mathilda stars in an Ad... wearing H&L 
Jo, Matildas owner, wrote to us 'Please watch the commercial below. Matilda is wearing your collar. She has worn it non stop since I bought it!  Everybody asks where I got it!'
The advert is a spoof news bulletin with an interviewer asking a variety of dogs why they love Natures Menu food. One of the dogs featured is a radio star Bulldog called Matilda, who is a big fan of Natures Menu’s complete tripe blocks – so much so that rather than get paid for her role in the advert she requested a freezer full of her favourite food instead. Matilda can usually be heard snoring over the airwaves on a Thursday evening when she joins her owner, JoAnne Good, on BBC London 94.9’s Late Show for a special doggie segment. Barking at the Moon is the only weekly radio slot dedicated to man’s best friend and has amassed a huge following since it launched at the beginning of the year.
