Puppy Brain by Jem Cooney
When Liv and Petra inherit Lucy, a Tibetan Spaniel, they promise to have a litter of puppies and try to show them. Well, how hard can it be?
Jem (Jeremy) Cooney is a stable owner and dog lover from Cork in the Republic of Ireland. Following his studies at agricultural college, he set off to see something of the world, travelling widely through Europe and Asia. Whilst hiking in Nepal, he discovered Tibetan Spaniels - and had a close and rather frightening encounter with several Tibetan Mastiffs. He spent several years in Japan where he gave English lessons to support himself. He still jokes there are Japanese students speaking English with a Cork accent! In 2011, he was in Tokyo when the earthquake struck. Deciding this was enough adventure for one lifetime, he returned to Ireland and set up his stables. He wrote a small book about his travels that was well received by family and friends and nursed the hope he might write something longer but his busy life kept getting in the way. He acquired a pair of Tibetan Spaniel puppies and established a small, select kennel. He shows them occasionally and enjoys a reputation as a skilled and kind trainer and handler. In 2017, he was contacted by Jennie who was seeking members of her Irish family. Travelling to England to meet her, they established they were cousins through her missing family. Delighted to learn she was not only a lover of Tibetan dogs but also a published author, Jem proposed a joint project that grew into this book. They shared stories and experiences and Jennie did much of the writing.
