Meet "Jasper" - "Tobermory" - "Forever Lewis" - The dog with 3 names. When he was barely a puppy he was christened "Jasper" (a cheeky little chap with a penchant for practical jokes and japes of all kinds). By the time he was a little older (and slightly wiser) he had disowned his parents, rejected the name "Jasper" which he said reminded him of Jaffa cakes (which he can't stand) and taken on the mantle "Tobermory". "Tobermory" still liked to make the occasional prank telephone call and the neighbours complained that he was still knocking on their door and legging it before they could answer (what a card!). Now he is fully grown he has put aside childish things (the yo-yos and Scalextric are gathering dust in the attic) and he has settled on his forever name of "Lewis" so we fondly refer to him as "Forever Lewis" as we knock on his door and run away before he can answer.
A remnant scotty dog - "Forever Lewis" was made from a small remnant - 50cm by 120 cm of textured damask with a lovely bit of floral linen for his heart ("Forever Lewis" wears his heart on his belly not on his sleeve). He has a bit of a pink eye (but we are planning on getting him some eye drops for that) and the ensemble is completed with a tartan bow set at a jaunty angle - what a fashionista.
