Nottingham dog bakery owner distraught after repeated break-ins
An independent business owner who runs a Nottingham-based dog bakery has spoken out about a series of break-ins in Edwinstowe. Ruby and Sophia's Dog Bakery was targeted twice by thieves within the space of a month and has had a huge effect on the business.
"We got broken into a week before we were due to open but luckily, we didn't have a lot of stock in there so it was mainly fixtures and fittings. We were the first tenants into the lodge which had just been renovated with glass doors and windows and they smashed all the doors in. To us, as a dog treat manufacturer, we didn't think people would target us so it wasn't something that had crossed our mind," she said.
"It was soul destroying and I felt very deflated. The only thing keeping me going is the community here as we got so much support from people. There have been a lot of break-ins in the area which are continuing at the moment. A pet shop here was broken in along with the Craft Centre. A cafe nearby had their tills stolen two weeks before mine so it's really rife at the moment."
