Just when you thought it was safe to put away the Christmas jigsaw puzzle after nearly 3 weeks of it occupying the dining table, just after having lugged the old faithful boxed games and this years versions up to the loft and completing the seeking out and destroying of the short lived entertainment that formed the contents of the seasonal crackers I have devised a little bit of a quiz.
There are no prizes, just a sense of participating in something without competitive edge if anyone can at all be bothered to use the comment button to submit their entries.
I got the idea from listening to Martin Jarvis and one of his Just William readings which reminded me about the close relationship between boys and their dogs.
The characters, both human and canine are to be found in mythology, fiction, non-fiction and the world of entertainment.
I provide a list made up of a mixture of owners and dogs and with the reservoir of answers below to allow a matching up and reunion of best friends. I have given a few clues for the perhaps more obscure.
