Here's Douglas, the Old Sea Dog, lending a hand on the weekend when my boat was getting craned out of the water.

Such a big gap for a small dog...shall I jump?

No, dont go, come back!

And here we are earlier in the week when Douglas helped sail the boat across to Fife. On the train, still wearing his life-jacket, this boy has found his sea legs.

Thanks everyone for your comments. Douglas had a poor start in life and, despite being less than two years old, had already spent 9 months behind bars at the rescue before I managed to get him out in February. I stood in front of his cage and he was singing to me - everything about his past, and the future he wanted to have:

I wish I could share all the love that's in my heart
remove all the bars that keep us apart
I wish you could know what it means to be me
Then you'd see and agree
that every dog should be free.

I wish I could give all I'm longing to give
I wish I could live like I'm longing to live
I wish that I could do all the things that I can do
though I'm way overdue I'd be starting anew.

[With slight apologies to Nina Simone]
