Guilty
These rather fuzzy pictures were taken surreptitiously by me around nine thirty last night as the sun was setting. Not content with having hectares of fields to run around in, let alone a large garden, the boyz have secretly taken to playing by the narrow pool edge. This is just where the ground falls away sharply towards the valley below.They know its forbidden. But as all dog owners know - in the canine,as well as the human mind what's forbidden is undoubtedly the best fun.
so maybe these are polish "highland" instead of low land....hmmmmmbrings new meaning to a polish lowland from scotland eh?? theBUSTER, Ms.Persephone & Ms. Blue too
2004 - We sell the farm in Scotland and move to the warmth of southern Europe. 2 lively Polish Lowland Sheepdogs - Wilf and Digby - our patient and comical companions. After a year in Provence we head to Italy to restore a hilltop Roman watchtower . Following an unpleasant 'housejacking' in late 2009 we set off for new adventures in South West Franceto get to grips with a large and exceedingly rickety old farmhouse. Empty nesters life after the violence of Italy has a gentler tempo. Digby passed on from piroplasmosis in May 2010. HIs brother, despite being diagnosed with cancer and having become blind ,soldiered on for another two years. Bob and Sophie joined us in 2013. Bob passed on in 2019. Sophie enjoyed the fresh air in Scotland after we returned in late 2022 but ran ahead in the summer of 23. This blog records all those little things about living with dogs that are too unimportant to make it into a diary but which make life, life.
