Stanley
Hi, I’m Stanley and I’m an Irish Terrier. Most people think I look like Tintin’s dog Snowy (wasn’t he white?) or the dog in Lady and the Tramp (grey, I think you’ll find!) but I prefer to model myself on Winnie the Pooh’s chum Tigger. You can often find me bouncing around Sarratt Bottom, hurtling along the riverbank or splashing in the Chess. I really do try to behave but it’s just so exciting living around here. I’m working on self-control but I must admit it’s not my strong point and I can only apologise to the summer picnickers I met some months back down by the bridge – in my defence, there was cheese involved. I especially love exploring with my canine pals Jeremy, Penny and Peach Pie. They know all the great places to investigate and we can often forget all about our two-legged pets who think they’re taking us for a walk. They can shout all they like but once the cheddar comes out it’s usually time to head back. My other hobbies include tree climbing (yes, really), cat chasing and stealing sticks from children. I’m also starting to make real progress in learning to speak Dog. Turns out most aren’t that keen on being enthusiastically accosted by a ginger ball of chaos. Who’d have thought…
