Dog eats Blueberries.


Last Sundays outing took us to Hurum golf course, near the picturesque seside town of Holmsbu. The purpose of this outing was to visit Mrs VL university friend, who happens to be the daughter of the owner of the Golf course.

Whilst myself, the thoughtful Scotsman and the owners daughters man enjoyed 18 holes of golf, Mrs VL and the owners daughter took a stroll through the forest with Peggy, our 3-legged hound.

At this time of year it is common for such outings to be punctuated by a stop to collect and enjoy natures offerings. One such delight being wild blueberries. Peggy is always on a strict diet of only low calerie food to keep wieght of off her back leg. However, she is a crafty hound and has been known to supplement her measly intake with chocolate from under the christmas tree, dog buiscuits (whilst staying with a friend she opened the cupboard door in the middle of the night), scraps from the compost bin and so on. On this occasion it seems that she has turned to nature, as you can see from the photo's she has learnt to pick her own blueberries......
