  Acknowledgements
  Thanks to David and Jayne for all things
  veterinary and countrified and, most
  importantly, the hair-raising stories
  about the real-life Hamish. I could have
  listened to tales about him all day – in
  fact, I think I did. Once in a lifetime a
  pet comes along like that – and thank
  goodness, otherwise no one would have
  any pants left. He has made such an
  impression on me and I’ve never even
  met him. There is a photo of the original
  and incomparable doggy on my website
