Those dogs look so intelligent that I wouldn't be surprised if they did read Anita Brookner when you weren't at home!

Karen, they are gorgeous! I wish I had a pet on hand to contribute...

But you're obviously a Brookner fan?

Rebecca

Such a lovely pair of labs! And I am a huge Anita Brookner fan, I haven't read one fir ages, the idea if re-reading Hotel du Lac is a splendid one.

Jane Gray

What beautiful, glossy dogs... and what serious, wise expressions. I'm afraid they've stolen the show from Anita Brookner here!

Sandy

Ellie, our bearded collie wants to encourage Mollie to try reading. It's well known that dogs can read and a friend in the Friendly Beardie Forum has posted a video of how to teach them on YouTube

That is very impressive (and puts my two illiterates to shame)! Well done to Luna and her owner, and thankyou, Sandy, for the link.

How did I miss International Anita Brookner day?!

The little one looks intrigued by A Start in Life. Might be tasty.

Beautiful pups!
