Puppies, Parties and Pretending 30 October 2009Today Mr Tom turned two. He demolished his two birthday cakes and then opened his present – which he promptly destroyed. We were relieved. It squeaked. As Mr Tom curls up exhausted on my lap, I remember David Attenborough's utter disgust at pet owner's who anthropomorphise their animals. Since anthropomorphising animals is pretty much what I do, I think I can be safe to assume he won't be visiting my website any time soon. |

Hauptstadthund 14 August 2009Mr Tom's favourite store is Hauptstadthund (which means Capital City Dog). It is full of all the sorts of things that you'd like if you were a dog in a capital city. It's not often open when we walk past on our way to the park - but he doesn't fail to check. Here he reaches up and scratches on the door - recreating the Hauptstadthund logo (which you can see on his harness and the sign behind him). Are these the innocent actions of a greedy dog or has he been brand brainwashed? |

Mr Tom and the trailer 9 May 2009 On a trip to the Tiergarten, Mr Tom debuted his new trailer. Tourists loved it – but he absolutely hated it. He jumped out at every possible opportunity and barked the entire time. |

Playing in the park 20 April 2009 Mr Tom puts his paw on our feet to keep us pinned down. He likes to have a tug of war over the ball before we kick it....every time. |

The power of positive thinking 6 April 2009 All dogs have perfected "that" look but doing it whilst standing on hind legs just takes it to the next level. |
