Dogs Are Everywhere...

Two of my housemates are ridiculously obsessed with dogs. No matter how big or small, you are always aware of a dog in the vicinity purely by the squealing that ensues at the sight of them. Initially annoying and then somewhat endearing, this thrill at seeing a jolly dog jogging along has started to rub off on me. Everywhere I seem to look there are tiny puppies tucked under arms, little dogs running after balls and big dogs with their tongues lolling out. Each and every one I see now makes me smile and brightens my day just the tiniest bit. There’s nothing sweeter than a wet nose and a happily wagging tail.

Here's a photo of our old dog 'Rudi' who was always such a jolly chap. Looking very young and dapper here, taking a rest from raiding workmans lunchboxes!
