DocsDoctor Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 I thought others on here would enjoy this story too - The Guardian runs a regular feature, with celebrities reminiscing about their departed but much-loved pets. Today Mike Gayle, a British author and journalist, talks about his friendly blue greyhound, Sail: 3 Quote Clare with Tiger (Snapper Gar, b. 18/05/2015), and remembering Ken (Boomtown Ken, 01/05/2011-21/02/2020) and Doc (Barefoot Doctor, 20/08/2001-15/04/2015)."It is also to be noted of every species, that the handsomest of each move best ... and beasts of the most elegant form, always excel in speed; of this, the horse and greyhound are beautiful examples."----Wiliam Hogarth, The Analysis of Beauty, 1753.
