Treats, check. Collar, check. Poo bags, check. Stylish poo bag holder, check. Totally adorable rescue dog, check. All that’s missing is a gorgeous matching harness and leash set from Instagram-famous Poppy and Ted.
Launched in 2018, Poppy and Ted is a pet accessory brand inspired by founder Paige Gillard’s new French bulldog puppy, Ted. And what started as a side hustle from her kitchen table has grown into an empire with a shiny new unit, seven employees and two dogs - chief ‘bark-eting officer’ Ted, and his furry sibling Margot.
If you’re wondering where ‘Poppy’ comes in, that’s Ted’s best human friend and cousin, three-year-old Poppy. Paige, who recently gave birth to her first child, Harlow, said: “Together they love nothing more than hanging out, going on walks, and of course taking nap time together.”
