Hagrid joined us at the age of two and a half because Jaffa our delightful cavalier king Charles spaniel chose him out of all the mastiffs we visited.

Here he is enjoying his first selfie. I’d say he’s rather photogenic.

Hagrid is the main star in the book The tale of a BIG dog also featured in Understanding the silent communication of dogs, my first book, written in association with Marilyn Aspinall, an amazing lady.
