What's your handsome boy's name James? :)

Alfie and his son, Tarsuinn here enjoying the views from Alfie's penultimate munro, Mullach an Rathain (281) on Liathach.
Counting repeats etc, Alfie has climbed 362 munros, with young Tarsuinn chalking up 160 so far.

522 munros between these 8 paws! :shock:

Well done those dogs! :clap:

Out of idle curiosity, do Munro completing dogs have to scale the In Pinn? Am Basteir would be a bit of a doggy challenge too!

Extra biscuit for Alfie on summiting no 282 (Bla Bheinn?). :D

Cheers Charles, yes Bla' Bheinn to be the last one. Hoping to maybe get a few days of good weather to fit in a Cuillin traverse beforehand (dog-less of course).

As far as I'm aware there have been no successful, self-propelled, canine ascents of the Inn Pinn. There was a chap who in 2009 paid for a Skye mountain guide to hoist his Boxer up the Inn Pinn in a special "dog rescue" harness. I really don't see the point in people carrying or hoisting dogs to places they can't reach under their own steam, unless it's necessary for the continuation of an extended route. If it's just to take a picture and prove a point, well it's kinda daft but also a bit sad IMO.

Here's a photo of Teallach the famous mountaineering GSD beside the Inn Pinn. A clever angle makes it look like he's on the pinnacle, but he's actually sitting on Sgurr Dearg summit. :D

Molly on A' Ghlas-bheinn. July 2015. The haircut rather gives the game away that it wasn't the same day in July as Beinn Fhada. ;)

I know its not a munro and neither is this but a bit unusual
Just dug (pardon the pun) out these pictures from a while back I came across three dogs apparently by themselves on a park bench in Ballater :? :? :?
