Lucky For Me by Frank Robson5/10/2023 | Human-animal relationships - Australia - Queensland. | Dogs - Australia - Queensland - Biography. In this full-blooded account of a friendship between man and dog, Robson puzzles on the sentient being who trotted into his life and taught him about survival, mateship and the joys of an independent spirit. From the start, the fluffy new member of the household proved an enigma, displaying a twelve-snort vocabulary, an ability to climb trees (the better to chase parrots) and a disdain for suburbia. A week from being put down he was adopted by Frank Robson and his partner, Leisa. At eighteen months of age, Lucky, a cream-coloured terrier, was dropped off at a vet's clinic in Queensland, abandoned by his owners and suffering from ticks and other terrors. How hard-living journalist Frank Robson fell under the spell of a small dog called Lucky. National edeposit: Available onsite at the National Library of Australia, State Library of New South Wales
