Jake's Progress

The adventures of a lurcher in the Scottish capital


No, I’m not.

As I walked to the park with Jake for some agility practise, lead in one hand and long, narrow carry cases full of poles in the other, an older chap in the John Shuttleworth tradition stopped in his tracks.

“Are you going fishing?” he asked, clearly astounded.

Poles. Not fishing rods.

    lol... we think that using the flexi leash on dogs look like fishing too...

    Hi! We just found you on Xsara's blog. We will look forward to getting to know Jake. We are nine whippets in Kentucky, USA, and our Servant's son is named Jake, so there you go.

    thanks for dropping by my blog! Love meeting new pups! Funny you say we are unusual in the UK..since we are a native UK breed! (we are currently on the vulnerable breed list...)

    looking forward to reading your blog posts!

    wags,

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.
