Dog circles moons of language.
Dog barks for homecomings.
Dog is a name away.
From: Dog - by Katherine Gallagher (Circus Apprentice, 2006)

During this workshop, we are going to read, write and whisper about pets! Whether they are swimmers or singers,
curled up on your bed or crawled away in a crate, pets are our sweet, loyal (and yes, sometimes annoying) companions. Expect fun and facts re animal language and training thoughts, expect lots of ‘pet prompts’ as well. Even if you do not own a dog or never had a cat, you will find inspiration in the animal pieces that will spring up. Do bring photos or memorabilia along, and let’s nose at how pets’ moves affect us in all manner of ways!
