| book description |

'I loved this book - it had me laughing and crying in equal measure. Tony magnificently captures the incredibly special bond we all have with our dogs' â€“ Will Young 'Beautifully written. Tender, modest and profound' â€“ Stephen Grosz â€˜Heartbreakingly moving. Anyone whoâ€™s known the agony and ecstasy of falling in love with an animal, of seeing them grow from pet to family member and experienced that unique and irreplaceable bond will adore this bookâ€™ â€“ Jane Fallon ----- A heart-warming and moving memoir for dog lovers everywhere from one of Britainâ€™s best-loved writers and journalists. â€œNobody will ever love you like a dog. Nobody will ever be as consistently happy to see you. Nobody will ever make you so glad to be aliveâ€ It all started when nine-year-old Jasmine wanted a dog and her parents, Tony and Yuriko, tried to fob her off with a rabbit. In the end, along came Stan, a bandy-legged bundle of joy, loyalty and bright red fur. And nothing like a rabbit. Set against the backdrop of Tonyâ€™s life in Hampstead and their daily walks across the Heath, with its rolling hills, ponds and cast of star-studded, dog-walking neighbours â€“ this is a poignant, funny and deeply human memoir about a special relationship with a four-legged friend. Full of Tonyâ€™s reliably moving, wise and heartfelt writing, Man & Dog: A Love Story captures the ineffable bond between a man and his dog.
