It is great walking along the seafront and the beach, meeting lots of folk, mainly through their dogs, what about this fellow:-

His name is Otto he is a three year old Great Dane, a rescue dog, he had 7 homes in the first 2 yrs of his life, shocking!

He is ok now though, as his new owner is not letting him go anywhere.

Bambi didn't have to bend down to stroke him LOL.
