In His Own Words
About him
I’m a retired Canine Behaviourist with a passion for animals of most shapes and sizes (although I still have reservations about spiders!). Genuine, loyal and perhaps a little old-fashioned, I believe good manners, honesty and a sense of humour never go out of fashion. I’m fit, active and enjoy keeping life interesting. I can usually understand what a dog is thinking, although I’m still working on understanding humans!
About his ideal match
I don’t have an ideal match in the conventional sense. I simply believe that when you meet the right person, you feel it. It’s that wonderful feeling of becoming a little giddy just thinking about them, or finding yourself smiling for no particular reason other than they’re on your mind.
Someone who becomes your best friend as well as your partner in crime. Someone you can laugh with, hold hands with on a walk, share the little moments of everyday life with, or snuggle up beside after you’ve cooked dinner together and settled down to watch a good film.
But above all, someone you choose, not just once, but every single day. Someone who makes you feel loved, wanted and appreciated, and with whom you want to share whatever life has in store.
I don’t think that’s asking too much. I think it’s simply what love should be.
