Thanks, Spider for the warm welcome.
Yes, I already read some guidelines about how to behave in the highlands and what I really love is the fact that these give some responsibility into your own hands, e.g. I remember the sentence that you have to keep dogs "under close control". You know, in Germany you would never read a sentence like this, because the scope would be to wide. Here one would read: "dogs have to kept on led" and beware, if you don't follow, even if your dog eats your lips!
Unfortunately my current dog has to be kept on led - she's a poodle mix and loves hunting
- o.k. she won't catch anything, but neither deer nor birds know this! I once had an Appenzell mountain dog, with which I could observe deer, capricorns and marmots and she stayed close to my side... sniff ... Anyway - new dog, new walkings. I'll have a look around in the forum!
bye (or is it better to say "aye"?)
