It’s A Dog’s Life In Covella
May 24, 2023 | IN Media Release and News | BY AVID | 2 min read
Greenbank dog owners will soon have the option to purchase boutique collars and leads as well as
book an exclusive pet photo shoot for their fur babies when the newly established business, Canine’s
Tale opens its doors in Covella by AVID Property Group (AVID).
Recent purchases of Covella, Relief Teacher Nina Van, 28, and Chef Robin, 30, have used their
passion for animals to start their new business venture, selling boutique dog accessories and offering
pet photography services to the wider Brisbane region.
Excited to grow their business, Nina said Covella was the perfect location to tap into an untouched
market and become the go-to pet shop and ‘pawtographer’ for locals.
“Robin and I started our business back in 2021 inspired by the tale of our very own dogs, Saki the
Japanese Spitz, and Coffee the Pomeranian, and now we look forward to reading and sharing the
tales of other dogs in Covella,” Ms Van said.
“We chose a block with park frontage to allow future customers the opportunity to visit after shopping
our collection or receiving pet photography.
“It’s important for us to capture the story of each dog through our lens – it’s what sets us apart from
other pet photographers.
“We look forward to moving into our new home and building our very own community of fashionable
pooches!” she said.
Small Business Month in May will pay tribute to more than 473,00 small businesses in Queensland,
the largest economic drivers contributing $119 billion annually to the economy. 1
AVID General Manager Queensland Bruce Harper said across its five Queensland communities,
AVID’s team is proud to be home to a large number of small businesses.
“Small businesses are the backbone of our communities, so it’s important we support and shop local
where possible,” Mr Harper said.
“Underpinned by AVID’s mission is the importance of strengthening ties with the local community and
continuing our goal of fostering lasting connections with local community groups and businesses
important to our residents,” he said.
“We are excited to launch a new grassroots initiative in our Greenbank
community – a Business Hub – to allow our small business owners to connect and exchange industry
insights and advice.
AVID’s Sunshine Coast’s flagship community, Harmony, established a Business Hub for local small
business owners in the community. Similar to the hub launching in Covella, Harmony members
have the ability to promote their business, share industry expertise and meet up once a month at the
local café.
