Hi everyone,



I really want to tell you all about the lovely thing that happened

yesterday while Harry and my Mum were shopping in our local Pet Food

superstore. They'd gone to buy some hide chews for us doggies and while

Harry waited in the car, mum went in to the store to quickly buy them so

we could be on our way for our afternoon out. When she got to the check

out there were two boys ahead of her, aged about 14 and 10, who had a

Written under my Harry Porter pseudonym, and released by 4RV Publishing, Alistair the Alligator, aimed at young and early readers tells the story of a young, toothless alligator, desperate to find something, (or someone) he can eat. Poor Alistair, everything he tries either falls out of his mouth, or simply slips through his bottom lip. In his search for something tasty to satisfy his hunger, Alistair meets and is befriended by a most unusual ally. This story was originally written… Continue

Hi everyone,

Hello everyone,



I'm sure you'll all remember little Sheba, our latest pack member who Harry and the family rescued between Christmas and New Year. You may recall that she's been terribly starved and all her little bones were showing when she first came to live with us, and she… Continue

'Tilly's Tale' has already received some wonderful reviews in addition to it's two awards, but the latest one is, I have to say, truly fantastic. I'm so pleased that people are seeing Tilly's story in the way it was designed to be seen and that they believe it can have a positive effect on people's attitudes (and children's in particular), towards dog abuse and neglect. If Tilly's Tale can help just a few dogs to find new homes and raise awareness in people of the need to take good… Continue

Hot on the heels of 'Tilly's Tale' I'm over the moon to be able to announce that 4RV Publishing have released my young children's book, 'Alistair the Alligator'. Designed to appeal to a younger age bracket the story tells of Alistair a poor young alligator with one serious problem: he has no teeth! Try as he might, everything he tries to eat either escapes, or simply falls from his mouth as he closes his toothless jaws. Beautifully illustrated in stunning and vibrant color by Amanda… Continue
