Incidentally - there were quite a lot of sheep around Wanlockhead when I went there recently. The village itself even has a few (no place to grow flowers!) - but there were a lot of village dogs - one of whom was asleep in the middle of the road - I had to stop the car and get out and wake it up so I could drive past. So the village seems quite doggy friendly.
I'm not sure how the local shepherds would react to a pack, though! (If they were under control, I expect it would be OK...)
