The Adventures of Buffilo: A Dog’s Tale brings to life a family bedtime tradition that began back in the late 1970s. Buffilo is a small, scruffy dog with a big heart, an appetite for adventure and an absolutely appalling record when it comes to staying alive. From fishing on Sydney Harbour and African-style safaris in Sri Lanka to Luna Park, Paris, Peru and beyond, Buff follows RJ Travers around the world — usually with disastrous, ridiculous and occasionally fatal consequences. The good news? No matter what happens to him, Buff is always back for the next story.

Part travel yarn, part family history and part completely unhinged bedtime story, The Adventures of Buffilo is definitely not your traditional tale about a lovable family dog. It’s dark, irreverent, nostalgic and unmistakably RJ Travers — where bad decisions are made, beers are consumed, common sense is optional and poor old Buff generally pays the price. Bedtime stories will never be the same again.
