You may have already heard the great news….but, just in case you haven’t…get ready to shop at The Black Dog on Bearskin Neck!
So exciting. It’s quite an honor, if you ask me, for Rockport to have been chosen as The Black Dog’s newest location. Rockport now joins a pretty fantastic list of other oceanside communities that are home to Black Dog shops.
Familiarize yourself with some of their great merchandise now…and start making your wish list…by checking out the Black Dog here! FYI, they’re also hiring.
The first Black Dog General Store opened on Water Street in Vineyard Haven in 1992. Today, there are multiple locations of our Black Dog Stores from Portland, Maine down to Annapolis, Maryland. On Martha’s Vineyard, stores are located in Vineyard Haven, Edgartown and Oak Bluffs. On the Mainland, you’ll find stores in Falmouth, Provincetown, Chatham, Mashpee, Newburyport, MA, as well as Newport, RI, Portland, ME, Mystic, CT , National Harbor, MD, Boston, MA and don’t forget about our other island location, Nantucket!
What do these Black Dog townships have in common? The ocean, for one. A nautical heritage and a safe harbor are imperative. The Black Dog Tall Ships do visit these towns.
More importantly, these are towns that have much in common with The Black Dog, an appreciation for tradition, a love of the sea and all things authentically New England.



Quite a line up there! I remember this song growing up on those holding hands on the beach walks, didn’t quite understand all the lyrics then but do now!
