Phwoarr! Foxy Keira fae Ballater


Gosh I hope Addi isn't reading this, but I just have to tell you about this cute wee foxy lass I ran into when out and about last weekend.

This is Keira from Ballater. We met near the visitor centre at Burn o'Vat. I'm telling you lads she was quite the stunner! If only I had words to describe how excited I felt sniffing her rear end. In fact I tried mightily to get even closer, climbing on her back to 'hug' her, know what I mean boys?

Meanwhile her owner was saying something to Gail about a 'season' as she pulled Keira out of my reach. I guess she was referring to the unusually warm and sunny weather we've been enjoying in NE Scotland just recently...

So after this delightful encounter, Gail took me over to the nearby loch and suggested I calm myself down a bit by contemplating the beautiful water lilies.






It sort of worked.

PS from Gail: Incredibly, given that he is now aged 3 1/2, this is the first time I have ever seen Bertie attempt to 'mount' another dog. Interesting he chose a WFT, when we meet so few of them.

  3. A bit of a tease if you ask me Bertie. You showed admirable restraint, although I suspect that the person laden park bench was almost pulled out of position.

  11. Bertie...This post is a little bit R-rated. The lure of baby Bertie's must have been quite overwhelming. Good thing you had scenery available to take your mind off it (yeah, right).

    OMD Bertie who can blame you, she really was a fine model!! I say, was her attendant not at least a wee bit interested in your lineage?

    Now you havnae mentioned the name o' the loch - I don't recall ever seeing so many water lillies in the wilds of Scotland before! Certainly very 'chilling' on a braw summer's day. That's all the season you need worry yourself with for now, lad!

    1. It's Loch Kinord. And never have I seen so many water lilies in a Scottish loch either. Although the little lochans on Harris might come close.
      Cheers. Gail.

  17. Now Bertie, I'm not egging you on or anything, but can you imagine if your new friend had little bertie pups! That would be quite cute!
    Eve says that Burn o'Vat is a lovely place, and so is loch kinnord, so if I'm not sick again maybe I will go one day!

  19. Keira was quite the flirt Bertie but I'm sure you were just the pawfect gentleman ;)

  20. Bertie, you're a crack up mate. How unfair you were tied to the garden bench. Surely Gail should trust you to do the right thing. Although what she thinks is right and what you think, could be two totally different things hehe.
    No worries, and love, Stella and Rory

  21. Bertie, you stud you! I bet if that pesky owner hadn't have been there she'd have fallen right for your charms. i a breed snob too, although any herding type will do. Except those nutty bearded collies. I hate them.
