While time raced by, our children grew up and went off to university. The mirror, which had reflected a young mum when Indigo first arrived, now showed a woman in late middle age. We all turned grey: me, my husband, the dog. In August 2017, I took Indigo for one last walk. She was slow and shaky on her paws. She died that month, a tennis ball by her side.

Finally she sat down by the fireplace and gave me a look as if to say if you wanted, I would stay with you. Everything I know about love I’ve learned from dogs.
