Louisdog Goes to Scotland

Louisdog Goes to Scotland

My next Pawlympics event is Ear Flapping, which will be on August 10th. That gives me a couple of days to practice Munro Bagging, which will be on  August 16th. Since Munro bagging is all about climbing the mountains of Scotland, it seemed like a good idea to fly over to Europe and practice there.

I was able to get a quick flight from Vancouver, and here I am this morning in Bonnie Scotland! Pawsome!

The air here is fresh and cool. So far, I  have found that the dogs are the same as the ones in Vancouver. I thought they would all be like Sweet William the Scot or Bouncing Bertie, but really, they are all different, just like the dogs in Vancouver.

I thought that Scottish dogs would mostly look like this one!

As soon as my plane landed I took a taxi from the airport to the mountains. In my luggage I brought a pup tent so I don't have to worry about finding a dog friendly hotel. I'll sleep in the countryside. The taxi dropped me off at a good climbing spot and I started walking. The first human I came across was this guy:

Aroo! Aroo!

Dogs don't like the bagpipes much but Mimi does. She says she like them because she has so many Scottish ancestors. She thinks it's genetic.

I have a lot of French and Maltese ancestors because my dad was a Maltese Terrier and my mom was a French Poodle. They didn't know about bagpipes.

Anypaw, here I am in Scotland and even though I am small I am brave to be here widout my pack. Maybe I will call myself Braveheart Louis!

Sending my woofy rruff to Mimi, Hazuzu my kitty, Eric and all my Blogville furriends.  I gotta go now and practice my munro bagging!

From Scotland,
