Are you sitting nicely? Good. Let's discover exactly what happened
after two superstar Labradors chewed up the lockdown internet and
found it really quite tasty. He's not kept a diary for decades but
here, in Dog Days, Andrew Cotter draws inspiration from the great
Samuel Pepys; like him, he bears witness to the extraordinary
everyday as the world tilts on its axis in our own unsettling era.
And so, with Olive and Mabel at his side - actually, dawdling in
the long grass or sleeping upside down - Andrew takes a clear-eyed,
often hilarious walk through a year that encompasses all of life
from the crushingly mundane to the decidedly odd. Followed by
whispers of 'Is that really Olive and Mabel?' - not to mention the
occasional Hollywood approach - the three of them pad around
literary festivals, breakfast TV, live radio and even an appearance
on Good Morning America. Slightly bemused by their fame, Andrew not
only pitches up in the iconic Mastermind chair, but makes a return
to sports broadcasting to find that it has become rather strange as
well. But, always, his pair of utterly endearing, endlessly
optimistic and eternally hungry canine companions show just how
precious our time is. Especially our time spent in the devoted
company of dogs. For fans new and old, this witty, insightful
account of a year like no other is an unmissable treat.
