Great shots. This is Tornado GR4 ZG771/133, an all-weather attack aircraft of 13 Squadron Royal Air Force Marham.
It must have spooked your dog as it flew over that low at Mach 1.3

I used a 75 x 300 lense and forgot to say yes i cropped the pics
My dogs are use to them as they do a lot of training up here, but it nice to know where they are from, and he was a long way from home, as im in northumberland 6 miles south of coldstream

You've done really well with those shots.
We have a lot of low level flying through our valley as we're near to....

........although I'm never 'ready' with the camera.
It's mainly the Tornado squadrans that whizz about although it is soon to be the Typhoon !
