Book review: Waiting For Doggo

WHAT’S a man to do? Copywriter Dan doesn’t really know, but he’s determined to make the best out of his recent bout of bad luck. And what about Doggo, the compact, grumpy, white, virtually hairless mutt rescued from the Battersea Dogs Home?
Doggo is “just a dog, a small ugly dog. No, not exactly ugly, but you know what I mean — not overloaded with good looks, poor thing.” So writes Dan’s ex-girlfriend, Clara, who dumped Dan without so much as a by-your-leave.
