I’m going out tonight straight after work so I really needed to find a dog in the daytime today. My usual train to Manchester was delayed so I got on a different train to a different station than usual and I’m glad I did! On my way to work I spotted a chap with 3 lovely dogs so I went over to say hello. I didn’t get a picture of all 3 of them as I just don’t think it would have been possible so I chose to take a picture of Penny, a Long Haired Jack Russell. She was very friendly and I gave her a good stroke.

Penny lives on a canal boat in the centre of Manchester with her human and her dog pals, a Chihuahua and another Jack Russell. They would usually be in London at this time of the year but they’ve had to stay in Manchester this year.
