Tomorrow by Damian Dibben

TOMORROW tells the story of a 217-year-old “give or take a year or so” dog traveling in search of his lost master.

His adventures take him through the London Frost Fair, the strange court of King Charles I, the wars of the Spanish succession, Versailles and the world of the Sun-King, and to 19th-century Venice.
