Weird Wednesday

~ Sparhawk Scotties ~ 1 Comment

Following on from our friends Down Under Daisy, and their escapades in their own woods, we  remember coming across our own “monster in the woods” ….

This photo was taken by our Dad (we’ve taught him everything he knows) during a camping holiday in Clumber Park (one of the forested places Robin Hood is supposed to have lived in).

And what a monster it is. We called it a scottie-saurus. Do you think Robin Hood left it behind all those long years ago? Or was it there when Robin Hood was around?

We need to know if you’ve come across “monsters”. If so, why not share them with us. We need to know what’s out there to protect our “peeps”.

Facts for today …

  • There are still monsters out there
  • Not just here …. but there as well
  • They lurk in the most obvious places
  • Lets root them out ….
  • Well maybe tomorrow ….

I’m a baby again!

Mum’s just got over a kidney infection and cheered herself up by looking at baby pictures of us.

As the “Mutt-ers” section belongs to me (Bobby) she thought she’d share a few snaps of when I was little. Apparently she says that I’ve not changed at all and approach dogs in the same naughty inquisitive manner as these pictures suggest.

Well I am a Scottie after all, what does she expect.

So how does she know it’s me, I hear you ask. Well, as I was from a litter of 4 boys, to identify us all, each of us had a different colour. Mine was grey ‘cos she named me after Greyfriar’s Bobby – how cool’s that!

By the way, Fin had a blue ribbon as she had already picked a proper name for him (Sparhawk Sapphire Knight, hence blue ribbon) but I stole ended up being given that name – but that’s another story, for another day. Enjoy these few shots of me being very cute.

Do you know who you were named after? Why not share this with us here.

You’re having a laugh!

Rolling Finlay

So, the weather was very hot on one of our morning walks. We walked so slowly so as not to get overheated, that Finlay decided the pace was slow enough to have a roll in the grass.

Here he is, mouth wide open, making lots of Scottie noise but obviously having great fun.

What a great way to pass the day away!
