Dear Lucy

Thanks so much for your kind offer and I look forward to reading about Jock.  My fourteen and a half years friendship with my wonderful Irish Terrier Blue is a very happy memory for me. Now I’m a ‘Mick’ Tragic who stops the car whenever I pass someone walking an Irish Terrier so I can leap out and accost the owner and the red-headed star.  Blue and I together were a team and I met many of my current friends from the days when I’d walk him around the neighbourhood and in the local park. He was absolutely true to type: fearless, affectionate and with the ability to make people laugh.
