Join Damaris West, our poet-in-residence and Ann de Forest, host of Walking America in an evening of sharing favourite poems about dogs and walking with them.
Have you a favourite doggy poem that you would like to share?
Whether commanded by a whistle or tied to a leash, carried in a bag or let loose in the park, harrowing sheep or guiding those with sight loss, pursuing a fox or finding earthquake survivors, guarding property or a substitute for a knife, humans and dogs have got along for thousands of years.
Is it true that wolves are their ancestors? Creatures that have a reputation as fierce predators. How did dogs become the most sought after companion during the COVID pandemic?
Bring a poem. Bring your dog, if you like. And treats.
See you on Monday 4 August.
