Description: Sparkles with humor joy and wit. London's Number One Dog - Walking Agency bounds along with the energy of a rambunctious pup and exudes the wisdom of a beloved canine with an old soul (you know the type)." Book Page The irresistibly charming memoir of a young woman who started her own business as a dog walker for London's busy well - heeled dog lovers. A true love letter to London dogs and growing up. Aside from the odd biter or growler the occasional bolter and the one dog who didn t want to walk the canines were the easy part. They were a muddy messy joy in all shapes sizes and breeds from greedy Labradors to pampered pugs and everything in between. It was the owners who were the real challenge a giddy mix of the over - protective the clueless the eccentrics and the perfectionists. There is no rule book on how to navigate the obsessions of the London dog owner. A degree in human psychology would have been far preferable to any sort of animal qualification. Not that I had either In 2006, Kate Mac Dougall was working a safe but dull job at the venerable auction house Sotheby's in London. After a clumsy accident nearly destroyed a precious piece of art she quit Sotheby's and set up her own dog - walking company. Kate knew little about dogs and nothing about business and no one thought being a professional dog walker was a good use of her university degree. Nevertheless Kate embarked upon an entirely new and very much improvised career walking some of the city's many pampered pooches branding her company London's Number One Dog Walking Agency. With sharp wit delightful observations and plenty of canine affection Kate reveals her unique and unconventional coming - of - age story as told through the dogs and the London homes and neighborhoods they inhabit. One walk at a time she journeys from a haphazard twentysomething to a happily and surprisingly settled adult with love relationships drama and home ownership along the way. But as Kate says It's all down to the dogs and what they taught her about London and life.
