Walking his neighbours’ dogs kept Ronnie together after a very difficult lockdown. But when a series of mishaps result in the dogs slipping their leads and disappearing off into the woods, Ronnie is forced to take chase and confront some hard truths.

Man’s Best Friend is Douglas Maxwell’s hilariously heart-warming story about the give-and-take of companionship.

A man wearing a grey sensible outdoor jacket and jeans stands at the top of a hill in an autumnal park, with a cityscape behind him in the distance. He has 6 dogs, all on the lead, sitting or standing in front of him - a golden labrador, two white cockerpoos, a black and white Patterdale terrier, a golden retriever and a black and white spaniel.
