Our Story

We’re Allison and Paul Ward, the owners of Moose Dog Workshop, located in Marshfield, Maine. We moved here in 2021, and the natural beauty we see every day in Down East Maine has inspired many of our products. We strive to design and create truly original pieces for your home or as gifts for those special occasions. If you’d like to get in touch with us, please drop us a line from our Contact Us page.

What’s a Moose Dog?

Often, one of the first questions we’re asked is, “What does your business’s name mean?” Our secret is in the above photo; we love dogs, and we have a special affinity for Norwegian Elkhounds, having had several over the years. With these dogs, elkhound is actually a mistranslation of the Norwegian elghund, which means…you guessed it…moose dog, and hence, our inspired business name, Moose Dog Workshop.
