Hello. Thanks for taking the time to drop by.
I’ve lived with and trained dogs for over thirty years and I’ve written works of fiction for about the same length of time. Writers are constantly exhorted to ‘write about what you know’ so it seemed reasonable that I should use my knowledge of dogs and dog sport in my work.
I drew inspiration for my first crime novel ‘Scent of Crime’ from my years spent competing in working trials with Solo, one of my German shepherd dogs.
My second crime novel ‘Tangled Leads’ draws on my experience of dog showing.
I wrote the little fun book ‘Crafty Canine’s 101 Ways To Foul Up Your Family’ after meeting some outstanding canine characters at the dog training club where I hold classes.
This web site contains excerpts from my books, and a selection of flash fiction stories from my files.
I hope you enjoy reading these stories as much as I like to write them.
Fiction writing is by it’s nature a solitary occupation and it’s a real boost to an author to know that people are actually reading the finished work, so feedback is important.

Oh, and just in case you might be wondering about the name ‘welterri’: back in the days when I bred and showed Welsh terriers ‘Welterri’ was my and my husband’s Kennel Club registered breeder’s affix. It is simply derived from Welsh terrier.
