🐕 KLAUS 🐕

Moose & I have had a lot of loss over our time together.

Significant people lost

And now our Boy, Klaus.

Klaus lost his battle with Systemic Aspergillosis on September the 5th.

His mind and soul was still bright and intent.

His poor body was failing him.

He was not in any pain, however is body was far beyond repair.

Those who know Klaus know his story over the past 3 years. You know how much we have all done to keep him here.

But it was finally his time.

Klaus was 6 years old.

🦠 Systemic Aspergillosis 🦠
�A very rare fungal disease in dogs, caused by Aspergillus — a mold that’s common in the environment.

Unlike the nasal form (which mostly affects the nose and sinuses), systemic aspergillosis spreads through the body, often to the kidneys, bones, or spine.

Unfortunately, it’s incurable and very difficult to diagnose early.

There’s still not much known about why some dogs develop it, or how best to treat it.
By the time it’s found, treatment options are limited.

Raising awareness matters, because so few people — even in the vet world — come across this disease. 💔🐶

Nick lost his girl Korra to this hideous disease over 3 years ago

Nick is running to raise funds to support research into Aspergillus (Aspergillus.org.uk) via The Fungal Infection Trust

If you have the capacity to, we would love it if you could consider a donation to work towards no one else having to go through this pain and heartbreak.

We will put links in our Bio / Linktree (In Instagram) to help you find Nick’s Page

🫥 SORRY THAT WE’RE M.I.A. 🫥

Hey there friends of Moose & Dog

Apologies that we seem to be missing in action these days.

And BIG apologies to those who have reached out to us in our DMs enquiring about market stall display!

We have had a lot of “life” happening of late, and we have not had the capacity or energy to show up in either of our businesses!

This is not a bad thing - we have gone through a reprioritisation (is that a word?) of what is important to our family, and stress is not one of them!

Both businesses were kind of “put on hold” without the energy to make a post about it informing everyone! Sorry 🫤

Earlier this year, we were at a market for our dearest_sallysnowdrop biz, a very reputable market with a hoooog waiting list (meaning, it’s a great market for small biz to get in on) and I think I made $10 less than stall fee in sales.

And that seemed to be the declining trend we were noticing in lots of our markets in the lead up to that one.

Talking to neighbours and our small biz friends, they were noticing the same trend - linked to the interest rate stuff!?!

So we decided to not put all of our energy into markets for Sally.

That thought flowed in to Moose & Dog because people were not in a position to spend the investment on display boards when they too were not making sales.

So we slowly lost a bit of interest, but redirected our energy to other areas of life.

Bringing back some joy of the stuff we love doing and the starting points of why we started our businesses in the first place.

We may come back to making products to sell.

They may look more like beautiful items for your home.

We are also constantly day dreaming about renovating our house (mostly cosmetic) so you may see some of that here, follow the journey, see the timber pieces that we create to fit our space!

Market stall display is definitely on hold for the foreseeable future!

We may come back to it one day

But we need to find that joy first

We thank each and every one of you who has loved our work so far, and is proudly displaying their wares on our display!

We love you lots

- Moose, Sarah (Sally), Klaus, Valkyrie and Mr Hans Gruber

🪵 RECENT WOODEN ADVENTURES 🪵

Hey Hey!!

We REALLY love Wood!

I know that sounds a bit….. questionable…

But, we really do love wood…. timber, slabs, lumber, sticks, trees… the list is long!

We recently went on a couple adventures to and to bask in the beauty that is recycled and reclaimed materials.

The amount of happiness that wood gives us is INSANE

I (Sarah) was literally dancing out with our purchases singing about how happy I was going home with some absolute BEAUTIES

There is a pic in this bunch of one of my all time faves pieces! It is stunning, and has such a back story

That is a piece of reclaimed Blackbutt (haha another funny word) that was sourced from a chicken coop.

I loved it as soon as I saw it, the wood grain pattern and the nail holes!! 😍😍😍😍😍

We love visiting places like this because we want to find materials like this with imperfect beauty and back stories to make beautiful things for your home!

Not sure yet what this is going to become, but I am certain it’s going to be GORGEOUS!!!

😍😍😍

I also love some one the patterns sanded into reclaimed doors at Renovators Paradise!

I love how sanding through the layers of years of renovations and paint to the raw material gives the door almost like a leopard print pattern!

So cool

🧢 INTRODUCING HARRY - The HatRack 🧢

✨ Behind the Scenes✨

We’ve been working on something special behind the scenes, and today, we’re giving you a first look at what’s coming your way.

Meet HARYY our handcrafted HatRack built from the beautiful Glacial Oak.

The dark, moody stain finish brings an edge of industrial sophistication, while the solid hardwood base ensures this piece doesn’t just hold your hats—it holds its ground.

Right now, Harry is making himself at home here at Moose and Dog HQ, where we’re putting the finishing touches on design and functionality.

This first edition trial is all about the details—adjustments to make sure every line, every curve, and every hook is perfect.

We want this to be more than just a hat rack.

We want Harry to feel like a staple in your space, as solid as it is stylish.

We’re not rushing the process, and we’re here making sure Harry is worthy of the high standards we set for everything that leaves Moose and Dog HQ.

Keep your eyes open for when HARRY finally drops—we promise it’ll be worth the wait.

🌧️ DRIZZLY MORNINGS IN THE WORKSHOP 🌧️

These always feel extra cosy in here.

As I stand here surrounded by raw lumber, I can’t help but feel inspired by the unique grains, textures, and warmth that each piece holds.

There’s something magical about taking this simple, natural material and turning it into something that adds character and charm to a home.

I’m excited to share the process of transforming these pieces into one-of-a-kind creations that will bring a sense of comfort and timeless appeal to any space.

From start to finish, I’ll be taking you behind the scenes as we craft each piece with care.

And soon, these hand-crafted treasures will be available for your home too!

Stay tuned – I can’t wait to share more.

Grazing Board testing and design underway 😍😍

💖 DOPAMINE DECOR AESTHETIC 💖

Hey Bud!

The other day we introduced you to one of our favourite style aesthetics that we look to when finding inspo for our pieces

Now introducing to the hecking opposite end of the design spectrum...
.. and my happy place! (yep, this is Sarah talking heh)

I wonder who saw this coming... 🤔🤭

Check out my mood board below 😍😍😍

💖 DOPAMINE DECOR 💖

💖 Dopamine decor pieces are all about sparking joy, energy, and creativity.

💖 They make a space feel vibrant, uplifting, and full of life.

💖 The use of bold colors, playful patterns, and whimsical designs instantly lifts the mood, creating an atmosphere that feels positive and invigorating.

💖 Homeowners and homemakers often experience a sense of excitement and inspiration when surrounded by dopamine decor—it's as if the space is constantly encouraging them to smile, relax, and embrace the little moments of happiness.

💖 This aesthetic invites feelings of freedom and fun, breaking away from the mundane and encouraging a lighthearted, energetic vibe.

💖 It’s not just about how the space looks—it’s about how it feels.

💖 People are drawn to spaces that spark their imagination and fill them with a sense of joy, optimism, and possibility.

💖 It’s the kind of decor that makes a home feel less like a static place and more like a dynamic expression of the people living in it.

I mean, come on... isn't this just perfect? I wanna fill my whole house with stuff that sparks my joy... unfortunately I don't think it will spark joy for Mr Moose.. heh

🪵 DESIGN AESTHETICS 🪵

Hey there Friend

We have been doing a lot of work behind the scenes on discovering our design aesthetics here at M&D HQ

And I think we have found a style that matches all the things that spark joy in our eyes.

🪵 Meet MODERN INDUSTRIAL 🪵

🪵 Modern industrial decor often evokes feelings of raw authenticity and strength.

🪵 It’s the kind of design that feels grounded and bold, offering a sense of rugged sophistication.

🪵 The exposed materials—think wood, metal, and concrete—create an environment that’s both industrial and warm, blending the unfinished with the refined.

🪵 Homeowners and homemakers often feel a sense of calm in its simplicity, as the space embraces minimalism without sacrificing character.

🪵 There’s also a feeling of freedom and creativity, as modern industrial pieces often leave room for personal expression.

🪵 The mix of textures and materials encourages a dynamic and layered atmosphere, inspiring a sense of individuality.

🪵 The overall vibe is confident, comfortable, and timeless, making the space feel like a true reflection of its inhabitant—authentic, lived-in, and full of personality.

Stay tuned…. We will be introducing you to another Aesthetic close to our hearts (well, actually, Sarah’s prefrontal cortex)

Can you guess what it is?? 🦄💜🍓

🥰YOU DO YOU, BOO! 🥰

But do it with CONFIDENCE!

A beautiful product display can play a significant role in boosting confidence in your products for a number of reasons:

🥰Creates a Strong First Impression:
When products are displayed attractively, they immediately grab attention and set a positive tone for the consumer experience. This helps build trust with your customers because they associate the high-quality display with high-quality products.

🥰Showcases Product Quality:
A well-designed display can highlight the features and details of your product. Whether it’s through lighting, arrangement, or styling, showcasing the best attributes of your product makes it look more desirable, which enhances consumer confidence in its value.

🥰Encourages Emotional Connection:
A thoughtfully arranged display can evoke emotions. People are more likely to invest in something they feel an emotional connection with. If your display resonates with them on a deeper level, they may be more confident in making a purchase.

🥰Enhances Perceived Value:
A beautiful display can elevate the perceived value of the product. Luxury brands, for example, often use minimalistic, sophisticated displays to increase the perception that their products are of premium quality.

🥰Improves Customer Experience:
A visually appealing setup makes it easier for customers to browse, understand, and engage with your products. When people feel like they can easily visualize the product in their lives, it gives them confidence to buy.

🥰Reflects Your Brand Identity:
A cohesive and beautiful display is an extension of your brand’s identity. It shows that you care about every detail, including how your products are presented. This attention to detail reflects a commitment to quality that customers will often mirror by feeling more confident about buying from you.

Are you feeling this confident? Do you need a little BOOST?

We can help you with that 😉

👁 EYE LEVEL DISPLAY👁
..or what I like to call "The Coles Effect"

Premium products are often displayed at eye level on supermarket shelves for several strategic reasons:

👁 Increased Visibility:
Eye-level shelves are the first place customers naturally look when browsing. Placing premium products here ensures they're more likely to be noticed, boosting their chances of being chosen.

👁 Perceived Value:
Products at eye level tend to be perceived as more important or higher quality, which aligns with the positioning of premium items. Shoppers associate eye-level placement with prestige and exclusivity.

👁 Higher Impulse Purchases:
Products at eye level are easier to grab and consider for impulse buys. Since premium products often appeal to a customer's desire for luxury or special treatment, placing them at this spot can drive unplanned purchases.

👁 Brand Visibility:
For premium brands, visibility is crucial for reinforcing brand identity and luxury status. Eye-level placement gives brands more exposure and allows them to maintain their premium image.

👁 Consumer Psychology:
Consumers tend to trust products that are at eye level, associating them with quality, and making them more likely to purchase. This placement taps into psychological factors of convenience and value perception.

Overall, it's about maximizing product visibility, enhancing perceived value, and encouraging purchases from consumers who are actively looking for high-quality options.

So are you going to get your products up off the table top and in front of your customers eyes?
