But then I noticed the state of her calf and pointedly waited until she had cleaned herself up.
(Fellow pups, does your owner spend more time grooming you than they spend grooming themselves? No? Just me then!)
When Gail had finally made herself presentable, we drove 15 miles up the coast the Forvie Sands Nature Reserve. I'm so pleased to report that the weather in NE Scotland has taken a turn for the better. On arriving at the entrance to the reserve, we spotted a new sign, thoughtfully placed at dog height and which, being a Good Dog (mostly), I was happy to obey.
You can't beat an empty Scottish beach on a fine (~21ºC/70ºF) summer Sunday afternoon!
ooh Bertie what a super place for a walk!!!! and we love that the sign was readable for pups and not only for humans... 10 paws for such a good idea
ReplyDeleteFabulous place to run! We must say that our winter temp during the day, is higher. BOL! But we don't have such a lovely beach.

ReplyDeleteAnd this is a typical exmample of the YAMster leaving the North to come South for sunshine (which is definitely here at 30'C), but missing out the blooming thing up there!!! Well done on insisting on standards, Berie lad. Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
That beach looks gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYou look so happy on the beach, Bertie! Happy International Dog Day!
ReplyDeleteHumans Bertie...they can be so embarrassing at times. Geeeez good thing Gail has you!!
ReplyDeleteI love that sign toward the the most gorgeous beach for a lovely sunny romp.
Gail...alas my quilting has come to a stand still. I order my next project from a local quilting store. Waiting for the arrival.
We'll be on vacation next week so that is ok.

What nice people, to put the sign where you can read it!
ReplyDeleteLucky Bertie!
