Tim Dowling: my year in numbers (yes, most of them involve the new dog)
Briefly

Acquiring a new dog in 2024 transformed my life, leading to an obsession I never wanted. I've created an avalanche of memories and humorous mishaps.
Writing ten columns about my new dog reflects how all-consuming this experience has been. I feel both embarrassed and grateful for this love.
Statistics reveal my year: one new dog, many trips, and writing, while life has revolved around playful disarray and intimate moments with my puppy.
Despite the challenges, there’s joy and chaos intertwined, from the puppy's antics to sharing quirks like falling from lawn furniture. It's been quite the adventure.
