climbing, rather than biking shots, but she does both better than me!

Ditch Jockey -
does he climb well? Its amazing what they can get up. We had a (now sadly deceased) Collie, German Shepherd cross, that managed to go up Jacks Rake on Pavey Ark - he was really sure footed, been over Striding edge and Sharp edge too, (on a harness and a short scrambling rope) he looked very similar to yours, a lovely dog!
Bracken's a 'she' not a 'he', but yes, she's very sure footed and seems to have good depth perception - apparently that's sometimes a problem with dogs.
She's certainly better on rocky ground than she is around water - she has an aversion to getting her lovely white paws wet, although she's better now as she doesn't expect to get carried over streams anymore. She's only just hit 2 years, so this will be the first summer we've had her out for any serious walks.
several hardtails spotted too!

TheArtistFormerlyKnownAsSTR - how tall is that fence!!!?
6ft - but the hound is stood on a load of sleepers holding the back of the rockery up, so probably 4ft.

STR - what breed is your hound?
Not entirely sure, as we got him at 4 months old from a shelter, but information from when we got him, coupled with opinions from doggy type people, we've decided he's a Staffy/Boxer cross.
I showed this thread to my Chihuahua, told her this is what all the super-fit dogs do... are you up for it..? the pic is her response...

Would I be correct in saying that is Innerleithen ?
The place not the dog.
Yep ๐
It's such a shame when they can no longer do these sorts of things.
My Lab', Toby, once known as Mad-as-a-brush, who used to love his 8hr epic walks, is now 14yrs old and the muscle wastage 'round his rear-end is awful - it's what will spell The End in due course.
He's now known as Dog-who-poos-in-the-house!
Take as may pictures as you can whilst they're still up for the adventure as retirement is not all it's made out to be.
