Welcome to The Barking Dog Apothecary, Man's Best Friend!  In the 18th century, small towns like Williamsburg, would have a local Surgeon-Apothecary shop where medicines in the raw and finished form could be purchased along with luxury goods.  Medical treatment, including surgery and midwifery, could be received.  My modern day Apothecary includes a wide selection of toys and games, items for school and books, pamphlets and mini-broadsides.


All prices include shipping and handling.  Payment is by PayPal where you can use your account or a credit card.  All transactions are secure. You can view your cart and total as you shop. Contact me if you have any questions.
