Gosh I had been so looking forward to Sunday, when I met up with my wiry pal Horatio, his Vizsla brother Harris and their family.
We walked up a big hill (Morven), and I learned about life's unfairness.
I spotted Horatio was being given cocktail sausages at the summit, so I hastened over to claim my share.
Only to find that Horatio was not in the mood for sharing.
Yes, that's the chewy treat you see in Harris's mouth.
On the way down I overheard the humans planning to go for post-walk tea and cake at the 'Sign of the Black Faced Sheep' café in Aboyne.
Horatio suggested that if I blacked up my face I might be allowed to join them.
I did not realise he was teasing me.
We can certainly understand why your relationship with Horatio and Bro is under a strain.

Ditto Scotsmad. Doesn't Horatio know that sharing is caring? Hmmmm. Have a marvellous Monday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
Horatio is very mean not to share particularly when
ReplyDeleteyou are making that face, he must have a heart of stone

Oh Bertie: Nodog tells a story like you do. But from the look of your face - you enjoyed the walk a lot, even if you missed out on the treats.
ReplyDeletegus n teka
MOL your pup friend's motto is what is mine is mine and what is yours is mine! So did you get tea and scones?
ReplyDeleteHugs madi your bfff
We see Horatio has the attitude of "what's mine is mine and what's yours is mine"
ReplyDeleteGOOD GRIEF Bertie... We think your furends need a talking to. Furends are SUPPOSED to SHARE and to give GOOD advice. Sorry your super day was marred by these incidents.
ReplyDeleteYou did a very good job blacking it up
ReplyDeleteLily & Edward
I think that was a clever idea, but you aren't a sheep...How sad that Horatio wouldn't share the sausages with you, I would share all my sausages with you... if I had some.
ReplyDeleteBertie, Have you been studying the PON approach to life and thought a muddied face would be a good thing???
ReplyDeleteWirey love,

ReplyDeleteWith furreinds like that you dinny need enemies... adding salt to the rub, I bet that entailed the dread 'bath' as well!!! Tsk, start hatching your return-deed for the next walk date Bertie boy!. Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
Oh Bertie, I feel for you, but you are to much of a gentleman I think. Loved the blackened face look.
ReplyDeleteHilary
Oh Bertie, that was not very nice of Horatio at all. That was a mean trick from a "friend". However, I would say you still look darned cute!
ReplyDeleteWhen it comes to cocktail sausages it's a dog eat dog world.
ReplyDeleteTerrible injustice Bertie! I hope Gail saved you some of her tea instead?
ReplyDeleteYou did a mighty good job with your costume! It should get you in for tea for sure!
ReplyDeleteBut ya did such a good job makin your face black!
ReplyDeleteCrikey Bertie ..... I wanna climb that hill with you. That is soooooooooo beautiful. I'm a good sharer! I'd share with you and I wouldn't tease. I'd be happy to blacken my face like that too. You look pretty good to me.
ReplyDeleteBertie you got snookered all around. Bawheheeeee!
ReplyDeleteThanks for being a friend
Sweet William The Scot
Oh no, you fell for the old dirty face joke! So sorry …better start planning your next joke on Horatio! Beautiful pictures!
ReplyDeleteRuby
Bertie, i've no doubt you're already planning your comeuppance for Horatio. Can't wait til you two meet again!
ReplyDeleteWe know that a terrier could outsmart Horatio. You are a true diplomat to share your treats and let him think he is the boss...well played, Bertie.
ReplyDeleteHey Bertie, what kind of treatment can you expect from a guy who won't share a treat? I mean, you'd share with him wouldn't you?
ReplyDeleteCheers, Stella
