The humans

Belinda and Aaron

After spending the last 25 years renovating different houses and finally building their forever home Belinda and Aaron decided to embark on a new adventure in May 2024 taking over the Rotaplas business.

While Belinda was a stay at home Mum for their three kids for many years Aaron spent his time working in the engineering sector as a fitter/ welder for 16 years working on small and large scale projects gaining experience in drafting and design before moving into plant maintenance and then on into managing teams of staff, production lines and installation of plants. Once the kids were more grown up Belinda began work in a retail copy centre printing and making products for people and then into working at a dog kennels gaining knowledge of dog behavior and needs.

Their combined experience with engineering, management, creating products and knowledge of dogs meant that the Rotaplas business was a perfect fit being able to design products to meet different peoples and dogs needs using Aarons engineering background as well as Belinda's creativity, sales and dog knowledge.

The dogs

Cisco

Adopted by us in 2016, Cisco is our families first dog. Dumped as a 5 week old puppy with his eight littermates we adopted him at 12 weeks old and he has been the best family dog ever since. Cisco is a huntaway cross and is quite a big boy! This smart guy is very quick to learn new tricks and always loves going for an adventure to the river to see Grandad!

The dogs

Eevee

Eevee girl was adopted by us at roughly nine months old from the pound after she as found wandering and left unclaimed. Being a border collie this girl is so incredibly smart she learns very quicky but often refuses to do tricks because honestly what's the point. Going for adventures anywhere and everywhere is her favourite thing along with sitting outside keeping an eye on our own livestock.
