Hi, image looks loads better in high resolution. The white paw was one of the reasons we could not positively I.D. There is a picture of the kit that this mother was protecting on my website. We where holidaying at Lochbuie on Mull and our dog was going ballistic at a huge rock on the shoreline. I put her on a lead and moved her away and this mother and youngster where underneath. I basically sat ten yards away with the camera and she proceeded to lead the kit away. She actually appraoched within a few feet at one point. A magic experience!

Had a look at your refuge website and agree with your philosophy.

Scott
