# Old Toffer's Book of Consequential Dogs by Christopher Reid (Paperback)

_I've rounded up a rowdy assembly_  
_Of my own Consequential Dogs_  
_As counterparts to Eliot's mogs._  
_Mine are a rough and ready bunch:_  
_You wouldn't take them out to lunch . . ._  
_But if they strike you as friendly, funny,_  
_Full of bounce and fond of a romp,_  
_Forgetful of poetic pomp,_  
_I trust you'll take them as you find them_  
_And, at the very least, not mind them._  
  
T. S. Eliot's best-selling collection of practical cat poems has been one of the most successful poetry collections in the world.  
  
For the first time in company history a companion volume will be published. Originally conceived by Eliot himself, Old Toffer's Book of Consequential Dog poems are a witty, varied and exquisitely compiled as Eliot's cats.
