Love, Coco x

In March 2022 on a farm in Fife, Scotland, a Golden Retriever puppy was born. Since leaving his family at the tender age of ten weeks to live with two housemates on the side of a Perthshire hill, he has written regularly to his best friend, Karen, who was present at his birth. He opens his heart to her about all of the things which are important to him – food, freedom, love-life and canine rights.

Through his correspondence, we can share the first year in the life of this young dog. A dog who considers himself to be very fortunate – he has a high IQ, extraordinarily good looks, and a strong social conscience. Modesty and humility? Well, perhaps he needs to work on those. While his housemates made some suggestions on how this book could be improved, Coco knows his own mind, and is happy to add literary genius to his long list of talents. To that end, he regards what you are about to read as all his own work.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Coco!
