One of his ears pointed upwards and the other flopped over. His fur was worn in places because he was quite old. Dogger belonged to Dave, who was very fond of him. This is the endearing story of how Dave's cherished toy was lost, and unexpectedly found again. Reassuring and realistic, it captures a familiar experience of childhood and casts a loving light on the family.
