Red Rufus is a collection of adorable sock dog toys created by Christina Sanne, who is based in south Dublin. Christina founded the company having being inspired by the adored family dog (an Irish Setter named Rufus) to make sock animals for the three children for Christmas 2008. When friends and family spotted these beautiful creations, Christina found herself being asked again and again to make Sock Dog for others. She started to sell her products at craft fairs and eventually founded the company in 2010.The website address is www.redrufus.ie
These one-of-a-kind handmade pooches are full of charm and personality. They are beautifully hand stitched which gives each toy an individual feel and they are also durable and resilient. They are wonderfully cuddly and the eyes are soft and stitched securely and it seems to be a good thing that they aren't buttons, which always seem fall off.
These would make a wonderful gift for any child and they can be specially gift wrapped. They can also be customised by embroidering the child’s name making it a very special, personal gift. What sets them apart is the fact that they are unique, handmade Irish toys and will definitely be treasured for a lifetime.
