The adventures of a lurcher in the Scottish capital


Dear Sandy,
I saw the job advert for assistant librarian at the Kennel Club in the vacancies supplement. How exciting! Will you be my referee?

Though I have no formal qualifications my people are fully trained, and surely something must have rubbed off in the last 12 months. It's hard to believe that when I first arrived here I thought Dewey was how my paws felt when I hit the park first thing in the morning. Now I know better. I can catalogue to AARFCR2, BARC21, and know the sled dogs' subject headings, MuSH.

I am not worried abut my lack of pedigree. Some of my best friends are pure blooded & I can honestly say they are none the worse for it. They are nearly as much fun as I am, hardly in-bred at all.

My people keep saying I need a hobby, but I think they mean agility or (god forbid) Freestyle. Please say you'll help me do something more fulfilling.

Lick! Lick!
Jake

Pic of Jake with insane toothy grin

Jake is a black & tan lurcher, adopted from Edinburgh Dog & Cat Home in August 2004. He now lives the life of Riley in a leafy suburb of Edinburgh. His interests include agility, running like the wind, enticing other dogs to chase him, fellow sighthounds Molly & Steve, squirrels, swans, plush swans, swans on telly, Portobello beach, the Edinburgh hills, sofas, & snoozing. 

Jake wears Earth Dog hemp collars from Mango Mutt. His collar tag (compliant with KC agility regs) is from the excellent Indigo Collar Tags.
