However, if you find yourself separated from your furry friend during lockdown, or simply missing interacting with all the adorable local pups while out on walks, you can always turn to social media to fill the void.

To help you out, we’ve compiled a list of the best Edinburgh dog accounts on social media.

Fin & Ted

These two Edinburgh pups often participate in doggy trends such as #soggyspanielsunday and #tonguesouttuesday.Under normal circumstances, the pair also love to explore the countryside together, especially Beecraigs Country Park and Yellowcraigs Beach, found just outside Edinburgh.However they have been known to adventure much further afield, such as to Yorkshire, The Lake District and the Isle of Harris, in the Outer Hebrides. Vicariously experience the thrill of their past adventures by giving them a quick follow.

As her account name suggests, this long-haired Chihuahua goes by the name of Coco.When she isn't eating toilet paper - much to her owner’s dismay - she will be napping in adorable and photo-worthy poses, or out exploring nature.

Spicy McHaggis

Spicy, the 11 year old bulldog still has plenty of life in her yet, and according to her bio, can “still pawty like a 3 year old.” Originally from Vancouver Island, Canada, this fun-loving pooch now lives in Edinburgh.Videos show Spicy to be quite the keen dancer, and her followers get to join her explorations of castles across Scotland and the UK, as well as the occasional pub visit with her mum and dad.

Rory the cocker spaniel

This cool East Lothian pup loves to play dress up, whether it be eccentric hats, headdresses or colourful shades. If you are looking for a dog with lots of personality, this is the one to follow. Rory is a true free spirit, and you will rarely see a shot where he doesn't have wet beach hair.

Otter the Border terrier

This one year old border terrier and his owner sure know how to make you smile, with cute photos and funny videos - such as one where Otter instructs the public how to clean their hands.Otter’s smile is infectious, and nothing makes him smile more than hanging out with his Uncle Rhum, walks in the Glentress Forest or Pentland Hills Regional Park and sunbathing on the sofa.

Toby and Queenie

This happy duo are known as Toby the three year old cocker spaniel and Queenie the nine year old Springer spaniel, Queenie.The pair do everything together, and when they aren't out chasing sunrises on early morning walks in Holyrood Park, or hilariously posing in spectacles, they can be found sleeping on the sofa - together, of course.
