Dedicated to my beloved Scotties
Gus was never any good at getting across these pesky stepping stones with out falling into the stream. Here he’s taking an “forced” slurping – see the water pouring out of his beard. I do miss him. Mama says though, she I remind her of Gus when trying to cross the stepping stones ‘cos I too nearly always end up in the drink!
Oh boy, this one would do well in my Flashback Friday series – here’s all five of us! I bet we drank that duck pond dry!
See me – 2nd from the left with the poo bag on my back – I’ve got my eye on them there ducks on the far bank!
One of my local sluuuurping stops. This is me and Fin, back in the day, taking on board pee-mail fluid!
This always makes me Bark Out Loud. This is the stream quite close to home. But I always make sure I grab a drink …. a long drink from this stream. I do this on purpose ‘cos Mama is usually desperate for a tiddle herself by this time and on the odd occasion she’s had to stand very very still until the feeling has passed!
This is me, desperately taking on board water. The day got hotter and hotter, despite it starting out quite overcast. Mama was very worried about me. Dada had to carry me for a bit, but here at this little stream I’m still ok.
This is Kelpie. Sadly she passed away in 2008 at the young age of 9yrs and 4months of chronic renal failure. But, she lived life to the full. There was never a day she wouldn’t try and steal some sort of food.
Here she is, during one of our pit-stops, helping to clean up a cup of tomato soup! Nothing stopped her ….. only the inevitable.
