'Thank You from Winalot'

Certainly would not consider meself a dog person but you would not think so, if you've had the misfortune to see me out and about for the past nearly three months.

Like clockwork at about eightish every morning, together with the most adorable toy poodle that answers to the name Peanut, I'm pounding the pavements along the Palm Jumeirah (in Dubai, of course).

Peanut never fails to amuse - like the ever-ready bunny, he's champing at the leash to prove his doghood the minute he spies another canine, big or really tiny. It lasts all of a minute at most because he does a runner as soon as he throws down the gauntlett. Even the rustle of a plastic bag can make him jump!

Well, so much for Peanut.

Here, we have all manner of dogs doing quite a lot to a delightful ditty (well, it almost could be sung) or dotty rhyme .... I especially adore the bassett at sea, ears flapping and all.

Courtesy of Purina, it's a special thank you from Winalot for dogs we love a lot!
