If we went on a picnic in Uig woods and were served up Kobi, we’d be delighted! The dashing doggy was celebrating his first birthday with owner Helen.
Chase, the six-year-old rescue Dalmador, looks like he loved his lockdown walks with Allan Maitland on Inverurie golf course. He certainly looks tee-rific to us!
Hannah Richmond insists this is a picture of Lexi the Samoyed at Nairn beach, but we can clearly see that it is actually a rare photograph of an adorably happy cloud…
It’s impossible to resist that infectious grin, Ellie! The wonderfully happy girl clearly loves life with George Young in Cowdenbeath.
We strongly suspect that Mirren Cormack just told beautiful Bonnie from Thurso that she is a very good girl indeed. She definitely looks very proud of herself!
Now, that’s what you call a cheesy grin! Marvellous Millie poses in her own special way for Katie Fraser in Aberdeen.
The new bridge at Lossiemouth is proving very popular with Thor! Or maybe it’s the ice cream Lorna Smith from Buckie has promised him…
We recommend this photo if you’re having a bad day. We can’t be sad after seeing Nala’s smile! Graeme Knight has a joyful companion in Arbroath.
Awesome Aspen looks rightly proud of winning best rescue at Coaltown of Wemyss dog show. He certainly looks like a champion to us! Danni and Derri Mcvey enjoy his company in Methil.
Dino looks almost shy in Frances Hill’s lovely picture in Southend, Kintyre. We can’t imagine why. If we were that good looking, we’d be showing it off to everyone!
The grass is always greener? Not according to Boomer, who loves the lawn he’s with! The five-year-old stays with lucky Sara Notini in Strichen.
Loki might be named after the Norse god of mischief, but we refuse to believe there’s any naughtiness behind that adorable face! Chloe and Reece Nelson’s precocious pup lives in Leven.
You know the secret to a happy life? Callie does. Sing like nobody’s listening, dance like nobody’s watching, and leap like your tongue needn’t stay attached to your head! Magnificent Callie lives with Dawn Brown and spreads smiles in Rhynie.
