4th charity shop search

Going hand in hand with increasing the number of kennels we use is the need to increase funds and to cover their cost.

Therefore today Mark and I spent several hours in Shrewsbury looking at three properties. Thanks must go to Iain Mills at Towler Shaw Roberts. Iain proved a highly effective and efficient agent in our successful completion of the Bridgnorth shop.

Iain attended with us to look at our first shop, and with a little bit of gentle arm-twisting persuaded us to view a second property. We had been reluctant previously based on what we assumed about the location, and how wrong we were. Iain knew what we needed in terms of space, location and price and came up trumps.

Unfortunately the third property we viewed (not sourced through Towler Shaw Roberts) was not up to the requirements, and in fact was somewhat short of the selling points indicated in its advert.

After viewing the three properties we decided on the second and today we have made a provisional offer for a lease. Now begins a period of negotiations which we hope will move swiftly towards a positive conclusion. More updates will follow here.
