I've tried to find out what breed they are, but with no luck so far. The rest of the herd look very similar to the black and red (well, brown) beef cattle that are very popular and common in these parts. I'll have to keep on searching now cos I'm intrigued!

She's actually a he! Most cattle are no problem once you know how to handle them (unless they've got calves, then you can be in big trouble!
). Plus this herd is the only one I've ever come across that are frightened of dogs, the only reason they got so close was because there was a fence between them and Isla!

Aww bless him, he's just a wanna be Cattle Dog!
It does look a bit that way now you mention it, makes him look all the more handsome I think!
