Life of Dozer

Paying his wage after all the hard work, unpacking boxes with me and posing for photos:

I even gave him a tip, though I’m not actually sure he deserved one today after the disrespect he showed, stepping on my book….

…..falling asleep on the job….

….and a general lack of enthusiasm for today’s task….

Disappointing, after showing initial signs of perkiness when I first opened the box and he started snuffling around inside to find the treats he was sure our publishers’ had tucked away inside the box for him….

…only to come up empty handed.

This is a Dozer face of disbelief.

Let’s not feel too sorry for him! He lives a pretty good life! 😂


Dozer was my beautiful dog and faithful companion for 14 years. He was also official taste-tester of RecipeTin Eats, and filled every day with joy, mischief and laughs. He passed away in February 2026. I miss him every day. The Life Of Dozer section shares the happiest moments of his life and keeps his memory alive. Read more about him here.

In loving memory of Dozer

2012 – 2026

    I would absolutely adore the opportunity to read, paw (a shameless ploy to get a vote from Dozer 😉) browse, repeatedly flick through, and most importantly use your new cookbook Tonight and fill my NZ suburb with the aromas of your recipes.
