Parables from On Piste and Off…  

Jackie and Mark share a passion for planks. When they married, just thirty-seven weeks after they first met, their ambition was to spend a full season in the Alps. 

Pups on Piste is the story of their first three months in Monte Rosa with their four dogs, Cavapoos (Cavalier / Poodle cross) Kai, Rosie, Ruby and Lani. A little-known resort tucked under the second highest peak in Western Europe, one ski magazine placed Monte Rosa in ‘The Top 5 Off Piste Destinations In The World.’

Once there, they get lost, stranded, conduct experiments on the edge of control and take a Back-Country Ski Course in which one instructor’s advice is, “Don’t miss the turn or you’ll go over a cliff.”

Join them in legendary powder, where you will learn a multitude of invaluable lessons about skiing, winter walkies, the revenge of the snow chains, surviving a Viking invasion and how to remove snow balls from the belly of a dog.

Industry Reviews

"A humorous and incredibly informative factual account." Louise Capper reviewer on the Waggy Tales Book and Dog Blog


"I was transported to this breathtakingly beautiful location by the author's superb descriptions, and gripped by the dangers they often faced." Beth Haslam, author of the Fat Dogs and French Estates series


"As experienced 'motorhome skiers' we are planning our first adventure with our young dogs and have had a lot of anxieties about the whole thing. Jackie's story telling and informative approach has not only relieved me of some of my anxieties but really inspired me! Most interesting is that it's a thoroughly good read by a very eloquent writer" Hannah James, Winterized Motorhome Skiing website
