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

    Nagi, I’ve been using your recipes long before your first cookbook was released and recommended you to all my family and friends. Coincidentally I made your chocolate cake today with my grandchildren, which was delicious! Your recipes make me look like a great cook, Thankyou!

      When friends ask me about what recipes I’ve tried lately, I simply direct them to your website. Once they’ve been there, they return again and again! Your recipes are no-fail, simple but satisfying to make, inexpensive (important when you’re a pensioner) and always tasty. Tonight I’m trying the Tzatziki Chick Pea salad…it’s waiting in the fridge for all those lovely flavours to blend; I just hope I can leave it there for long enough before I dive in! Thanks, Nagi, for sharing!
