Dear Reader

Here I gather my thoughts in this series of steps to happiness. If it achieves my humble ambition, if it assists young dogs, and rescue dogs, and dogs inexperienced in the better things in life, if it drops but a single piece of nourishing wisdom into the minds and hearts of its readers, then I will be a very happy little Bedlington.

Yours, the cutest. London, June 2017
