Experience the delightful journey of two beloved dogs and their owner, esteemed sports broadcaster Andrew Cotter, as he shares captivating journal entries detailing life during the pandemic lockdown. Please ensure that you are seated comfortably, as we are about to discover the extraordinary tale of how two Labrador superstars captured the attention of the internet during the lockdown period and found it to be quite delectable. Although Andrew Cotter has not maintained a journal for many years, in his work, Dog Days, he draws inspiration from the renowned Samuel Pepys. Much like Pepys, Cotter provides a poignant account of the remarkable events unfolding in our unsettled era as the world faces unprecedented challenges. Thus, with Olive and Mabel by his side – occasionally ambling through grassy fields or dozing in peculiar positions – Andrew fearlessly embarks on a vivid and often comical journey through a year that encapsulates the full spectrum of human existence, from the monotonously mundane to the delightfully bizarre. As they traverse literary festivals, breakfast television studios, live radio shows, and even grace the presence of Good Morning America, whispers reverberate throughout, questioning the authenticity of their identity: "Are those truly Olive and Mabel?" Meanwhile, the occasional glimpse of Hollywood glamour piques their interest. Slightly bewildered by their newfound fame, Andrew not only finds himself occupying the iconic Mastermind chair but also reignites his career in sports broadcasting, only to discover that it has been transformed into an entirely different landscape. Yet, amidst it all, Andrew's pair of utterly charming, endlessly optimistic, and perpetually ravenous canine companions remind us of the precious nature of time – particularly when spent in the devoted company of dogs. Whether you are a devoted fan or a newcomer, this witty and insightful chronicle of an unparalleled year is a truly irresistible delight that should not be missed.
