Jake's Progress

The adventures of a lurcher in the Scottish capital


Bike light technology has increased mightily – or come down in price - since last winter. Suddenly we’re meeting a lot of cycles in the dark with fierce blue front lights. Jake ain’t so keen on these, even tho' he usually doesn’t give a toss about passing cyclists. The hurty-eye lights are making him twitch. And this morning someone had a hurty-eye torch in the park … end result: Jakey ran up BARKING at a bewildered dog walker who was only trying to pick her dog's shite off the park in the dark. Ger-woof woOF WOOF.

We may need Sandy’s bike lights to desensitise him. Tho’ we don’t want him rushing up to every passing bike thinking it’s her (terrified cyclist swerves, splash! in the canal).

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.
