Based on the popular newspaper column, 'Urban Dog' is a canine epic, a tribute to the beauty and dirt of London and its strange dog-world of mutts and their owners, and a story about the search for enduring love . . . or failing that, any half-decent relationship.
Expelled from his childhood home in the country, Scottish Terrier Parker becomes "urban dog", in which guise he helps his hapless but affable master earn a living by providing him with copy for a weekly newspaper column. It proves a battle for them both: to learn to tolerate each others idiosyncrasies, to climb out of the dog-basket they have shared, to survive heartbreak and ridicule and to learn to concentrate for more than five minutes.
Just as they seemed to have achieved domestic comfort in Notting Hill, their lives took another strange twist that would set them on opposite sides of the Atlantic.
