The adventures of a lurcher in the Scottish capital
Labels: Scotland
Jake is a black & tan lurcher, adopted from Edinburgh Dog & Cat Home in August 2004. He now lives the life of Riley in a leafy suburb of Edinburgh. His interests include agility, running like the wind, enticing other dogs to chase him, fellow sighthounds Molly & Steve, squirrels, swans, plush swans, swans on telly, Portobello beach, the Edinburgh hills, sofas, & snoozing.
Jake wears Earth Dog hemp collars from Mango Mutt. His collar tag (compliant with KC agility regs) is from the excellent Indigo Collar Tags.

Oh, I'm trying to think of words that might even begin to express my jealousy that you and Jake get to play in castles! Real castles!
By the way, I have to tell you that my favorite castle in all the world is Edinburgh Castle, but I feel pretty sure you can't walk up there with a dog.
Can you?
If you say yes, I will expire from jealousy, so consider your answer carefully...
Only service dogs are allowed in the likes of Edinburgh & Stirling castles - so you can contain your envy a wee bit. ;-) Dogs are allowed in some of Historic Scotland's more ruinous sites; there are some pics elsewhere in the blog (tagged Scotland).
