So yesterday I got to dogknap, I mean dogsit, Dino for a few hours while his mummy was busy in Edinburgh. Mia was acting a bit jealous in the house when Dino found and went wild with her favourite fox toy but once the toys were removed they both settled and he was a great little pup to look after. Afterwards we met up with Shrap and I dragged the pair of them along to the Pentlands Regional Park. The walk was much longer than I remembered and we ended up being out for about 3 hours . Poor Shrap had a dodgy leg but she was an excellent sport and went right round the route with me. We met a host of distractions (horses, dogs, cyclists, kids, babies and joggers!) but I'd like to think the woofers did themselves proud and the pair of them were absolutely full of beans, even after 3 hours! The pooched played great together and were great together in the back seat of the car, which I had been a bit worried about. Dino was snoozing, curled up on top of Mia's back... it was sooo cute ! I love that walk as it is so beautiful and tranquil and I had a really great day... so thank you Shrap and Dino .

































Sooo annoyed I missed the tail on this shot!




Lol, we had some VERY close calls!


I tried to get Mia to pose and failed miserably!


Pretty posing pair:






More posing!


Mia didn't like me being on the opposite side of the wall!




We met a Tibetan Mastiff!!! He was sooo gorgeous, although I didn't recognise what he was (owners faces blanked for privacy)






Haha, the pair of them kept sliding down this ice sheet like it was a rink




Mexican stand off!






Very mucky puppy:




Benefits of having a short haired breed!

Look like they had a wonderful time. Great photos so many excellent ones. I love the one of them posing in front fo the trees and all the ones of them charging around. Gorgeous dogs.
