Can I take Mouse for a walk? I ask, and I am always allowed. We set off, very slowly. Mouse walks at a snails pace. He stops at lampposts and fences and sniffs for a long time. Sometimes he looks up at me and then I usually say something. I maybe say old man in a very nice voice, not my usual one....I wish Mouse was mine. My Dog Mouse offers friendship, humour and gentle heartache in one dog walk. This is a book for anyone who knows what it is to love an old slow dog, with ears as thin as pancakes.
