Fae Tibet or Torry?

So earlier this week I posted about the sad loss of two of the park 'regulars'. 

But you know what? There's always new friends to be made. 

I hadn't met this wee Tibetan terrier before, but he seems a really nice pup. 

Although I was disappointed to learn that he's a Torry loon, and not from the Himalaya after all.

  4. He's a cutie alright. I've made the mistake before of calling a Burmese Mountain dog a St Bernard. Lets just say that it's not a mistake I'll make again.

    2. Crikey ..... you're both mad!!!! Loons are birds. Even I know that. Someone must be pulling your leg Bertie. Your new mate sure looks like a terrier to me.

    3. Yep, yer right, Charlie... I's hurd of burd dawgs before,but dat's a dawg dat goes after burds. A loon is a bird, not a dawg.
      I mean, I knows dry gots diffurent words fur thangs over across da pond, but a dawg ain't no burd.

    4. We promise you, in the Aberdeen dialect, a 'loon' is a young lad (and a girl is a 'quine').
      Cheers! Gail and Bertie.

  13. Howdy Bertie. Nice to meet new furriends. He looks like he'd enjoy a good run around. Mum met an Airedale and an Irish Terrier the other day. Sadly we didn't as she was out gallivanting without us. No worries, and love, Stella and Rory
