Not sure if this helps but we went to scotland a while back, we was un-able to take the dogs. But was amazed at how dog freindly they are, and the veiws/walks are amazing. We are planning to take our dogs on holiday in 2009 and plan to go to scotland as long as your dog is well behaved etc they are even allowed in some public houses etc. The people are freindly we really enjoyed it would deffinatly take my dogs given half the chance.....
