Fun, Fun, Fun!

It was such a beautiful sunny day with clear blue skies that we decided to head for Irvine Beach. This was Biggles’ first experience of the sea. The sun was so warm that Paul got sunburn!

The beach is over three miles long. Last year someone had told us that there was a lovely restaurant at the far end where you could eat on the beach with your dogs so we decided to walk the full length. I guess it’s only open in the Summer season because all we found was a little corner shop selling egg sandwiches and ice-cream!

I Still want a Sheep!

We took Beanie and Biggles back to Muirshiels park today for a walk along the mine track. It’s about a 5 mile round trip on a good path through openm hilly country. This time we were wearing our cani-cross equipment. The walk was a lot more enjoyable for them and us. They had comfy harnesses, we had our hands free and we all benefited from being linked together by nice, springy bungee cords. I thoroughly recommend this kit even if you never have any intention of running with your dogs.

Beanie was as good as gold. Biggles was slightly calmer this time, but he still can’t resist those sheep!
