Sue was raised on a farm, and she and Martin love the countryside and all that it represents. They have brought up their family with the same passions as their own, and with a love for all animals, and in particular horses, dogs and cats. Having moved to Devon 7 years ago, we are now in the enviable position of running our own small holding, with cattle, sheep and poultry, as well as horses, dogs,
cats etc. Meanwhile, SPH Supplies has grown from selling one product (Pet Virkon) directly into the pet trade, shops, kennels, catteries, animal charities and so on, to one where we now have in the region of 400 product lines. The majority of the items that we sell are products that we use on our own animals, and are tried and tested by our own pets. Sue is normally based in the office, but is assisted periodically by husband Martin and daughter Rachael. As you can imagine - there are millions of tasks to be done around the place, so if we are not in the office - we are either out tending to the animals, packing parcels, unloading supplies and so on. In which case - please leave a message on the phone - we always get back to enquiries, and will phone you back shortly. We are very much a family business - with family values, which means, we hope, that you will find we are always willing to listen and help you with your pet related problems. It would be remiss not to mention Ben (working sheepdog) who likes to round us all up, Doug the office dog, and Dexter (small and makes us laugh!). Pi and Sika are the Pest Control Officers - a task we have to remind them about occasionally when they are whiling away their working days fast asleep somewhere warm and comfortable ... 4 of our 'domestic' pets are rescues – we believe firmly that the best place to find a new forever friend is in a rescue centre. Ben, however, in view of the very specialist nature of his work commitments, was purchased – the first time we have ever bought a dog!
