I'm impressed by your truck - what do you use? My wife might need something similar before too long .

Love it, was expecting Gus to catch the light with his paw. he really is a silly boy.

I like the white tips of their tales like little lights showing you where they are.

I can't believe the terrain you cover and the speed you go, yet your camera remains steady!
I just knew that when you stopped to show us the view across the fields, the dogs would be waiting in front of you when you turned the camera back.
I'd love to see your scooter sometime, or perhaps you could tell me what make and model it is. My sister gets through scooters like I get through chocolate muffins. She even ended up in A&E when she got tipped out while negotiating a dropped kerb!

We’ve been wondering what scoot you use and the camera-it stays very steady.
I love the way one of your dogs keeps a check on you, always looking back to make sure you’re ok!
Lovely to have a good area to take the dogs!

Mine is a TGA breeze 4, but it's the model prior to the current one.

He is and adorable with it, looking forward to seeing you give him cuddles again.

Yes I love that too, it does make me smile watching them.

To be honest that terrain was a piece of cake, I was driving with one hand and filming with the other, it's just my phone in my hand, the rough ground needs both hands.

They never go far, further on we came across someone riding a horse and I am so proud to say that they spun round & came back instantly when I whistled to be put back on their lead.

My scooter is always covered in mud, but it is a TGA breeze 4, though mine is the older model and I have done around 3000 miles on it.

I tried an ordinary scooter before I had my first one, my brother brought it up and I hated it, I could feel how easily it could tip over, the wheel base is so narrow on some of them and there is so little to some of them your also really top heavy, more so when your tall like me.
The Breeze 4 is a heavy beast with a decent width of wheel base, so much more stable and they are designed as all terrain, though I do push the boundaries a bit sometimes.
I can and do tackle kerbs easily up or down and at an angle, though there is a limit on height, there is no way I would try that on a standard scooter.

It's just my phone in my left hand, it must be the horse riders hands, when you ride you learn how to keep your hands independent of everything else that's going on, comfort for your horses mouth, you don't want to numb your brakes.
Yes Gabby in particular checks a lot.
We are very lucky, it was nice going back along that track, it was out of bounds for a while because they were harvesting the trees.

Hoverboard!!!!

I would need to eat loads more beans to be a hoverboard.

Thanks. What attracted me was the ease with which it coped with the forest track.

It was nice to see the Collies running free. Our first rescue dog was a Collie. She never went far from us and kept coming back and circled us until we said she could go.
Muttly Max was German Shepherd Collie cross. He thought it was a good game to run like a lunatic as far as he could. Recall took a long time and every one knew his name.

I think Gabby still thinks she is a puppy sometimes instead of 10, I wish we had half her energy.....

A great scooter and dogs are made for each other. Auld Meg sits on my footplate more and more these days. But you can't beat getting out into the hills, it's where both should be!

Gabby has a rest like that now and then, but she is as fit as a flea.

My two are fine with horses fortunately as we come across them quite often when we are out and about. Meg used to be fine even when young but was a bit worried when she first encountered one with a rider, probably thought it was some strange two headed creature as she had a similar double take at a small child in a backpack.

Known as a 'Shepherd's Lantern' - because it can be seen in the dying light.

Nice to see you are mobile and able to follow the dogs. When we were visiting my parents we saw a guy with a Yorky in the front basket of his scooter.
Trying to squeeze past people on the pavement one of his front wheels dropped of the edge of the pavement. His dog was launched into the road and he fell out of his scooter. Luckily the pelican crossing had just turned to red.
I grabbed his dog and my father picked the guy up and helped him back on his scooter.
I wasn’t surprised it tipped over. It was more like a skate board with a seat on a stick. It didn’t look very stable on the flat pavement never mind on three wheels.
We met a lady with an amazing 4x4 scooter in the Yorkshire Dales. It looked it would give my knackered old Discovery a run for its money.

The shopper type scooter I'm guessing he would have had are pretty unstable at the best of times, I bet he was grateful you were there to help.

I would love to see the scooter that lady had, I have a breeze 4, it's a heavy thing and very stable, you should see the rocks I take it over.

 

[bigwood]

I don’t know what make her scooter was but she was on the local news about her adventures. We met her above Ingleton water falls on one of chalk lanes.
The guy we rescued in the village was a bit of a pain from what my Dad said. It is a busy village in the summer with people mooching about blocking the pavements. He has been known to shout at people to get through or even poke people with his stick.
He didn’t even thank us. He was lucky his dog wasnt run over.
I admire you’re determination to get out with help from the dogs. Since we lost muttly I can’t seem to get out. Even before we retired it was compulsory to take him out come rain or shine. Also I miss the other dog owners. They will always say hello . There dogs mostly want to socialise so you can’t just walk past. I still have treats in my fleece pocket.
Picking the new muttly up on Saturday can’t come fast enough.

 

[Mrsambulancekidd]

Well it was worth helping his poor little dog at least.

I know what you mean about not wanting to go out without a dog.
I went into Ayr shopping on monday and left the dogs behind because of threat of dog theft even from cars, You wouldn't really know Gus was there as he settles down in his carrier in the back, but Gabby is always seat belted either behind or to me and loves seeing the sheep.
Not having her having her there made me feel like I was missing a limb.
Can't wait to see a photo of your new baby, the gap the old ones leave is just too much isn't it.

I have to master the picture bit yet but I will work on it. I have some fall back to help with tech things.

We need a scooter and dog group!!

That sounds like a good idea, maybe one of us should start a thread on that subject.
