Jake's Progress

The adventures of a lurcher in the Scottish capital


The traditional Hogmanay catch-up post

Well, as usual we’ve been sucked into the festive holiday time warp. On top of that, my camera-phone packed up and had to be sent away to be fixed, and that’s what I rely on for the impromptu pics of Jake’s adventures. And any shots from Rod’s fancy camera that might be used for next year’s cards are embargoed!

So how would Jake summarise the last two weeks?

1. All morning walks were carried out after sunrise and not at 7am in pitch black as is usually the case in midwinter. THIS IS GOOD.

2. Excellent to see elderly aunts, always rich pickings there. Particularly when Gus and Rod aren’t looking.

3. A trip to the beach while returning auntie to her usual residence. She lives a mere 200 metres from the beach. Sand is the new snow, you know.



4. Fantastic meat cabaret almost every day in a kitchen near you!

5. I love my honking duck.



6. NOT SO GOOD. My people were here almost all the time. They got on my nerves with all their noise. Huff. Sigh. Excuse me while I skulk under a nice warm radiator in another room. Zzzzzzzzz.

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.
