Pet Fursday – her name is Lola…

Lola works with Mary Whitehouse:

We’ve worked together for a couple of years, although she’s been living with us since 2008. Things changed in January this year when Millie, a naughty cairn terrier pup, joined the family. Now my desk is one of the few places Lola can escape Millie’s fairly constant requests to play.

Main home working skills – She’s very serious (unlike her doggie companion) but her main role is letting me know when it’s time to take a break; she does this by sitting on my notes or walking over the keyboard and ruining my carefully-crafted copy. Thank goodness for auto-save!

Favourite leisure activity – It used to be catching mice and birds and bringing them in, sometimes still clinging to life, to show us – that was nice. She still enjoys shredding the carpet and jumping on my lap just when I’ve decided it’s time to get up from the sofa.

Mary’s company is Word Service Marketing Communications – a professional, friendly and affordable alternative to big agencies for copywriting, PR and marketing communications strategy and implementation. If you’re lost for words, I can help.
