A Man’s Best Friend
Daily writing prompt
Dogs or cats?

One of the easiest prompts that I’ve had to answer. Dogs. 100%.

I grew up with 2 amazing dogs. Coco, which I apparently named at a young age, as she was a brown Labrador, and I decided to name her after my favourite cereal, Coco Pops. Then we had a Jack Russell named Tillie, who went on to the grand old age of 17. Coco had to get medically put down at a young age, but Tillie became a proper member of the family. I think I ended up with nearly 1000 photos of her throughout the course of her life.

Even now, I can’t help but coo over dogs as they walk past, giving them a little greeting, and one day I hope to persuade my husband to get a dog. The only downside is that I want a bigger dog, similar to a Labrador or Husky, yet he is set on getting a Dachshund if anything.


We are now just 3 days away from our next cruise, and at this specific time, we would probably be sitting on our balcony in (hopefully sunny) Southampton, or in a bar eagerly awaiting our sail away and our dinner. You can follow our progress by following us over on Instagram, which I’ll provide below.

    Meet our Mocha III (2 before with same name) and you’ll know DOGS, DOGS DOGS. But I hear you about vacations, cruises and $$$$ spent for ‘Dog Resorts’. And the ever medicating and overcharging vets.
