At Keates Interiors, we are a dog friendly office. We have our resident dog Sprout, the Jack Russell cross, who works full time telling off the moor hens that nest on our canal and graze on the fallen apples outside our office.

We also have Bailey and Biscuit our beautiful Lurchers, who’s main job is sleeping and taking up space in the office, however they will chase off a squirrel when required.

Then finally we have Gwen, the Maltichon who pops in from time to time to check we’re all working hard and our work is up to scratch.

All the office dogs are rescued, and so have their little foibles, but we wouldn’t want them any other way they all know how to be on their best behaviour when we have clients in for meetings.

Sprout is our cleverest member of the team. He will stand up on his back legs and spin around if there’s treats on the go, and we’re just working on ‘play dead’ (in between developing beautiful designs for our clients).
