Visiting my Dad on the Isle of Mull

Post by Sirchow »

I am just back from visiting my Dad on the Isle of Mull off the West coast of Scotland. I was going to take Isla and my daughter brought Thor but when they met up after not seeing each other since they were eight weeks they played 24/7 and I was not sure my 86 year old dad could cope with that so we took Thor and Izzie (his mom) instead.
First night...they were a bit unsure so far from home
Image
Visit to Calgary bay and some paddling or in Izzie case swimming to America to visit some friends :D
Image
Thor soon got into the mood and although it was freezing thoroughly enjoyed his paddle even if he wasn't as brave as mom
Image
Image
He did get in quite a mess with sand but it didn't show till I looked in the back of my car!
Image
Both shattered at the end of a great day
Image
Catching the early morning ferry was hard but the sunrise was beautiful

Siriol, Bramble, Izzie and Isla.

I want Thor! Such a good looking dog. Dogs love beaches don't they? They look like they had a great time.

I would not be so brave with mine they would have on water wings. :oops:
I wonder if Sigmund Freud's patients were mostly Chow owners. :wink:
Try to figure them out; often won't go out in the rain or step in a puddle, but as you and others have shown us their curiosity over rides their fears; well sometimes. :-?
Great looking dogs having a memorable time, thank you for sharing. =D=

I'm sureI could arrange that Rory's dad it is parradise for shows there. Izzie flew me like a kite across the sand dunes and nearly wrenched my arms out their sockets!
I did think Izzie was heading to see you Nancy she waded out and out till I began to worry as she never usually even goes in the water if it can be avoided. She misses her aunty Nancy.
They did have a good time :D
