Depiction

Two men standing, and a dog and a man on stools, in a bar.

Description

Pádraig Ó Céidigh, Professor of Zoology, was generally accompanied by his faithful companion to lectures and other academic events, as well as on social outings such as this one.
The story is often told that when the dog was refused entry to the Library, on the grounds that he had no user card, Paddy Keady returned with him the next day, having somehow registered him as a student and obtained a card. The dog was granted admittance.
