Hi, I’m Loz, a creative storyteller and pet photographer from Melbourne, Australia.
In an earlier draft, my story was heading into science, order and routine until a young man with big feet, a pot belly and long ears came into my life and everything changed…
I have loved dogs ever since I can remember - so much so that one of my earliest nicknames from my family was 'Woofer'. Apparently, before I could talk, I would sit up and make 'barking' noises at passersby. This fascination progressed, as did my communication skills (thankfully), into pestering my parents for a dog every birthday and Christmas until they finally caved and said yes... when I was 16.
My Dad and I were looking for Labrador breeders when we came across that tiny, pot bellied sleepy Beagle who hadn't yet grown into his ears - needless to say, we didn't get a Labrador…
