Jessica Knowles is someone who has always embraced the outdoors. But growing up, she could never understand why all the voices that occupied this space were men. Determined to break the mould, Jessica set out on adventures with her trusty companion, Pepper, and realised that life is so much more fulfilling if you go down the less conventional route. Once Jessica started to share her stories online, people began to take an interest, and now she has nearly 40,000 follows on Instagram, who all want to hear about her latest adventure. Making quite an impact, she has featured on the BBC, in the Daily Mail and other national and local media. Now, in Dogventures, readers will have the chance to see how they can overcome fears and have a richer and more confident lifestyle. Jessica weaves personal narrative with practical advice on how to be confident in your own skin, buck social trends, and how to have a positive impact on your outlook. As Jessica says, 'This is a lifestyle I only learnt about in my late twenties after buying my first dog, an overly enthusiastic Hungarian Vizsla named Pepper. I know, I am late to the party.

This book is aimed to motivate people to live in the present and embrace change. It shows a journey of self-reflection and how through a variety of experiences, from owning a dog to owning a pair of walking boots, it has nourished her wellbeing.
