Fancy a day out but not sure if you can bring along your four-legged friend? Then worry no more as a new study by Petlandia has revealed Scotland's top ten most dog-friendly National Trust properties. The study took a list of dog-friendly National Trust properties across Scotland and scored them based on a series of doggy criteria points i.e. 10 points for things such as off-lead options, dog waste bins and dog drinking water. Here we take a look at the results.
