Could your pet be the cutest in the region?
Put your opinion to the test with our weekly Pet Portraits gallery, where your beloved companion could be among the most adorable animals in the area.
This week’s winner is Kath and Niall MacBeath’s champion pooch Jock!
Check out our gallery below
“I’m on top of the world!” A rather windswept Blair provides the perfect model for a dramatic picture by Riona MacPherson overlooking Ardmair Bay near Ullapool.
We’re pretty sure that this is a photograph of the world’s fluffiest and most fantastically curly teddy bear. But Alasdair and Carole Maclean assure us it’s lovely Lagotto Romagnolo puppy Harris from Nairn.
WINNING: Well, how could we not award Jock this week’s top prize when he’s already provided his own podium? Kath and Niall MacBeath’s champion pooch from Westhill is sitting pretty at the top of Barmekin Hill near Echt.
We often wonder what pets think of us constantly taking their pics. Wallace of Cowdenbeath makes it clear: “Quite right, George Young, I’m the only thing worth photographing!”
Beautiful Benitto the lop-eared rabbit hops to it in Diana Gordon’s Scone garden!
Terrific Teila clearly loves the flowers in her new home in Banchory with June and Brian Alexander — she looks like she’s standing guard over them!
What’s better than one Harris? How about two? Six-month-old puppy Harris fits right in on his namesake island, where he enjoyed a holiday with Claire and Kevin Smith from Carnoustie.
Katie Fraser from Aberdeen tells us this is Millie’s begging for-food face. We. Can. Resist… OK, where are the snacks?
Sadly, Sarah Kotschujew’s cat, Molly, died in January. What a beauty she was. We hope Sarah has lots of lovely memories in Dingwall.
Brilliant Breagh has clearly mastered the art of chill. The precious pup hangs out with Jane Mackenzie in Lairg.
Oh, Cassie, those eyes! Graeme Knight has to try to get things done in Arbroath with this gem around. Good luck, Graeme!
We looked it up and the collective name for dogs is a pack. How dull. We’re sure, given this shot of Buddy and Stitch, that Paulina Gorecka of Oban will join our campaign for it to be changed to a “sqeeeaaakkkkk”.
“Emma phone home…” Derek and Margaret Darnell’s adorable 10-year-old chocolate Lab channels ET as she dries off from the rain in Muir of Ord.
