This is a really quick read! It’s perfect for the beach or taking on an airplane. I found myself laughing out loud on several parts of this book. Definitely give this one a read!

In a word … BRILLIANT!

Oh my goodness, what’s not to love about this book? The author is supremely Scottish and it’s all about antics with animals. I haven’t laughed this hard in a long time. I’d hire Mr. Jackson to care for my pets in a heartbeat–except I think I’d prefer to go along on the walks to see all the adventures myself.
This marvelous narration takes the reader through the ins and outs of life as a Pet Care Professional. Dog, cat, and bunny lovers will all find moments they recognize as well as plenty of surprises. The writing is engaging, real, articulate … in a word–BRILLIANT! My kindle’s pages are marked all over with passages that had me in stitches. Mr. Jackson could surely make any profession or commonplace activity sound far more entertaining than it really is, but when the spirited cast includes these special dogs (and one alarming hamster in particular), it’s even better.
Since this is a real life story, I don’t know how we wrangle a sequel, but I certainly want to read more from this author!

Delightful!
By Dyanne Gordon Green on 6 Nov. 2015

What a delightful, well-written book! The author invites the reader into his world of professional pet services and it is a wonderful place. Yes, there are damp dogs, and yes, there is rabbit wee and it’s all makes sense. I fell in love with the dogs and their distinct personalities. Light and humorous but also filled with touches of true, heartfelt emotion. The writing style is reminiscent of James Herriot’s “All Creatures Great and Small” series. I highly recommend this book and hope Mr. Jackson continues to share his stories.

From a career in banking to one in barking (dogs that is!)
By Suzy Cue on 2 August 2015

The author, relates his transition from former bank manager to ‘pet-care professional’ with raw honesty. How he turned the bleakness of redundancy into a life changing opportunity. From hot tempered hamsters, ferocious felines, distressed dogs to tearful goodbyes, his animal adventures will have you laughing out loud one minute and crying the next.
With his pack of dogs, he takes you with him through the beautiful Scottish countryside. His razor sharp wit, clever lively dialogue and entertaining escapades are a real page turner.

As a fellow dog owner the day to day scenarios made me laugh . Can absolutely relate to them and the few sad times too. So well written I feel that I know all the dogs personally. Would definitely recommend !
