I like this from this weeks Hackney Gazette front page.
At first i thought of my dear dog Bertie – sometimes known as the beast in our house.
This other beast was covered in black fur  only. Bertie is of course black and white.
I think the young woman who reported this needs to get out more. Large animal covered in black fur.. Mmmm dog I’d say.

I think it’s a Newfoundland belonging to fellow dog walkers. She’s called Willow. I’m afraid she and Bertie didn’t really hit it off – but I would refrain from calling her a beast. How very dare you!
