Fine weather, fresh air, friendship, freedom, fun and frolics

Thank you friends for all your fascinating comments to my last post, providing so much invaluable  - and in some cases yes, highly novel - data for my big scientific project! Please, if you didn't already tell me about your 'canine indicators of Spring', there is still opportunity.

Meanwhile, I have been enjoying some leisure time in Glen Dye with my pal Jake. We have heard about a golden retriever who was bitten by an adder in these parts, but all we saw was sheep. The hill in the background with the nipple on top (a well known Aberdeenshire landmark) is Clachnaben.

    Bertie - Is that snow on the hillside ?

    Glen Dye is a beautiful place! Must be SO fun to run around freely up there. Did you get to chase any sheep?

    I wish I was the Jake you were playing with -- it looks like so much fun to run free with a pal in such an interesting place!!! I get to go outside with my brither, but it "ain't" the same thing.

    Wirey woofs,

    Suffice it to say: we are jelly of your green grasses that are showing through, your off-lead runabouts and your friend Jake. Now would be a good time to transport our still shaggy wirey selves to your part of the world.

    It may still be too cold for adders up there. But look like a magical world for a walk with a friend.

    Bertie, I must say that your colouring matches that of your beautiful Scottish countryside. You sure are a Scottish dog!
