Hey there Bertie, Who was more scared? You? The Seals? Gail?...or was there no disturbance whatsoever? Somehow I think not. I know I wouldn't have been able to resist. (I'd even try barking through my loud-hailer - "the cone" - at those things. I've discovered 101 things to do with it.) Lotsalicks Your buddy TOBY IN SOUTH AFRICA
Those seals are lovely are they used to doggies on their beach? Sometimes in the US they dont want dogs to walk where there are native species, like in certain state parks. The feeling is that dogs cause trouble for the native species by barking, running off, etc. Mom and Dad think its very sad
I can see that sun baking is a favorite pass time for all sorts of critters. Watch out, Bertie, don't get too close. Those seals are surprisingly nimble.
Hey Bertie! Wow, those are some pawesome critters! Look at all the colors on them. Neat fur sure. Did everyone bark at each other? My Mom's going all squeeeee for this. Grr and Woof, Sarge, COP
First there was Hamish the Westie. Then there was Bouncing Bertie. Now we have new WFT puppy Nobby. Will he be Nice Nobby or Naughty Nobby? Watch this space!

OMG!! That is so amazing. I hope you were hospitable. I'm sure those chaps can stand their ground if required...

Those are cool looking seals. I see that Gail applied your "walking string" after that crowd was spotted.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing,
Cindy
Oh my gosh, Bertie, those seals are amazing! What did they think of you? Did you bark at them? This is just amazing!
ReplyDeleteYour pal, Pip
How wild is that? Did you get to take one home???
ReplyDeleteOh my- look at that sand:) Did you behave around all those seals?
ReplyDeleteI am quite sure you and Gail both know enough seal etiquette to keep your distance! How fun to see them, though.
ReplyDeleteCheers and hugs,
Stella

Bet you weren't allowed close enough for a really good sniff. Is this a regular, if seasonal, thing on your beach or was this unusual?
ReplyDeleteJed & Abby
Wow, now that's something you don't see everyday, BOL!
