Trivia
While it's not unusual for series on the BBC Scotland channel to have multiple repeat runs over a relatively short timescale, Scotland's Best Dog gained an extra, unplanned full-series repeat in the week following the death of Queen Elizabeth II, evidently being deemed a suitably safe replacement for anything considered potentially insensitive during the mourning period (or simply cancelled that week, such as football highlights). It was paired with another emergency replacement, Loggerheads.
