Maggie’s Doghouse

Such a cute place. Staff was very friendly. Got some yummy treats for our pups and they loved them !

So this is not the cheapest place to go if you want to buy a Chuck-​It. But it’s a great place to go for unique gifts for new dog owners, or a special treat for your best 4-​legged buddy. They have great leashes and collars, too, not to mention terrific customer service.
We go here all the time because they offer high quiality kibble that’s hard to find elsewhere, and I love supporting a local business. Definitely worth a visit if you’re a dog lover!

You have to surprise your dog with a trip to this Unique store! Love this little shop! What a great place to treat «mans «best friend! I love that the dog treats actually look like real pastries from the bakery! Some of the leashes and collars are a bit on the pricey side, but they do have affordable items as well!

I love me some Maggie’s Doghouse, as do my dogs, but I don’t like that they close at 5 during the week. We’re not all stay-​at-​home soccer moms in Hingham.
Maggie’s carries Orijen (which my babies eat) and it’s not always easy to find. They also have a huge selection of toys, making it easy for my husband to spoil the dogs on a regular occasion. Most recently, we acquired a stuffed red lobster and a pink monkey. We spend a boat-​load of money on dog toys that are lucky to last only a few days before their surgery, which involves a full dissection and removal of the squeaker inside.
It’s a great location, nice selection, and nice staff. I just wish they were open until at least 6 during the week.

The boutique scene is vibrant in downtown Hingham, and not just for people.
From specialty foods to head-​to-​tail clothing, Maggie’s carries all things muttly for dogs and the dog-​obsessed. Carob coated treats in a bakery style display case make for a cute store centerpiece, while oddball items like First Ones ornaments (canine angels, replete with solemnly saved faces and bird wings:
) and favorite breed keychains from the 80’s rock the perimeter.
As specialty shops do, many of the items are priced 20% higher than what’d you’d find in commercial retail, so save the Bitter Apple or curbing bags for a more practical trip. However, even the slipper-​chewingest Fido deserves a snowman biscuit or an organic stuffie once in a while, and when those days roll around, Maggie’s doors are open.
Bonus: they’re more than happy to special order out-​of-​stock inventory for your furry amigo at no charge. Somepuppy’s getting snow booties for Christmas — don’t tell!

It’s not every day you get to have a 14^th birthday party for your much loved Siberian Husky. Let me do the math for you: Scout turned 98 in human years and thankfully he’s doing alright although much slowed down. And yes, we are those kind of people who have birthday parties for their animals, pointy hats and all. Feel free to mock us if you must; we can take it.
I’m a regular at Maggie’s but came this time specifically to peruse the baked goods section for some birthday party treats and to buy some dog toys. There is always a great freshly baked selection of dog treats that look and smell good enough to eat myself.
I love that there are always seasonal designs on some of the iced treats; for this month some fun Halloween designs.
Kim, the owner, was there and we had a nice chat about Scout as well as her 5 year old dog and 7 month old puppy. (One of the reasons I love local, non-​chain shopping is this kind of personal relationship you develop with the owners.)
As for the party, we had human and canine friends over for a barbecue (dogs salivating at the grill while they waited for their share) followed by the luscious looking treats and vanilla ice cream for the birthday boy and his pals. Fun was had by all and the dog treats and the dog toys were a hit…(big surprise, not).
Maggie’s Doghouse continues to wow with healthy dog treat options, great dog food choices, toys and whatever other supplies and paraphernalia you and your animals might desire.
While this birthday, being Scout’s 14^th, felt bittersweet and I periodically got a little choked up, the treats and toys from Maggie’s and all the friends helped make it extra special.

I had the pleasure of making a quick stop at Maggie’s Doghouse to pick up some souvenirs (read doggie cookies) for my little Chihuahuas lest I be in the dog house when I get home!
This is definitely a shop for the well heeled South Shore doggie set. Lots of necessaries and luxuries for all dogs large to small to teeny! Maddie and Kylie enjoyed their oversized (to them) WOOF biscuits that Maggie’s is famous for as well as their new bag of kibble from FROMM (ha ha!).
The lady there was very nice and helpful and it is clear that with all the super sized pet shops around it is challenging to run a small pet (in this case dogs) centered business when the competition is so great but one would be challenged to find a more charming and worthy business to support especially when, as witnessed, one is greeted by name and is shopping locally. I just wish I lived nearby. Really, I do! ;)

I just happened to find Maggie’s today after searching out another Unilocal hotspot in Hingham. (nona’s ice cream) The owner Kim was very friendly and runs a very clean store filled with everything for your best friend. Good selection of toys and food (organic/​raw as well), leashes and collars, homemade baked doggy treats (you could mistake the display case for any North end bakery), and numerous other dog related paraphernalia. plenty of on street parking.
