Here is Tai all dressed up for the trip to Glenshee! Because her coat is quite thin I was advised to get her a jacket to keep her warm, and she seems to adore it! It certainly seemed to keep her nice and cosy up there! She also had her rucksack, she has the honour of carrying the first aid kit, the torch and the whistle in there as well as her lunch. I would certainly recommend them for others with dogs! I usually put her rucksack on when we are out walking in the Cairngorms and Glens because she usually stays on the lead there for both safety and wildlife reasons and the rucksack, aside from being useful, helps give her a bit of extra excercise on the walk, plus it gives her a job to do!

Oh! Kat, she looks so snuggy warm and pleased with herself. It looks a very posh coat.
I can't imagine my Lola with a rucksack, especially if it had her lunch in it. It wouldn't last 2 seconds! Lola's job when out walking on the lead is to pull my husband up the hills!!!! I am the sensible one, I take Purdy who is well behaved and walks to heel. Purdy has a waterproof coat to keep her dry because she is knocking on a bit now.
Did she also have a barrel round her neck with the brandy in it?
Cheers, Linda.

I agree Kat Tai, Tai looks a very posh dog in her coat/rucksack. :-)
Adorable Kat!! She does look snug and very pleased! Those rucksacks are great! I regularly meet a pair of Rottweilers at boot fairs with them! :-)

No barrel with brandy I'm afraid! But she's quite happy with her rucksack, I think she now understands rucksack means longer-distance walking. Though it is still quite difficult to get her to eat her own lunch when we're out, she'll happily have a bit of my sandwich though! I think I'll have to make kibble-sandwiches for next time lol
Oh sooooooooo cute!
Hey farmer, farmer, put away the D.D.T now. Give me spots on my apples, but leave me the birds and the bees, please!
Haha thanks Janet, she loves her jacket too! Wouldn't go out without it last week when it was wet and miserable!
Where's the hat..?

I think she'll draw the line at wearing a hat somehow lol
