Elsie visits the Duck Park

Elsie our whippet puppy hasn't completed her course of vaccines, so isn't allowed to walk anywhere outside (other than our garden patio). She can be carried to places, which is what we are doing on a daily basis.

We took her to the "Duck Park" this afternoon, so she can get used to the smells sounds and sights of a popular public space, a space that she will frequent often once she is allowed to walk in public spaces.

So here she is by the lake with me, she's wearing one of Ruby's jumpers, it is a bit too big for her at the moment, but we think she might be a little larger than Ruby once fully grown.

She's a beautiful little whippet dog (well to our eyes she is )
Lovely photo, hope you don't get to wet at the moment...

Elsie is looking very sweet & nice to see her in Rubys jumper. She looks completely at home in your arms but I’m quite amazed she doesn’t try & jump out!

@happypat thanks Pat, I hold her tight, we walked her to St. Mary's and back yesterday which is probably just under a mile return journey (she does get heavy even though she is a puppy) . We went in the car to the Duck Park

@phil_howcroft Oh you are in love with your pup and that's always a grand thing in my book. Like I'm in love with Will Connor. =)

A wonderful portrait Phil and Elsie is so cute! and yes she is beautiful too.

She really is beautiful Phil, but they do say a dog can resemble their owner!

Have fun with her Phil and she’ll become a good friend for your grandchildren

What a poppet. She looks like she's enjoying the sights and smells from her safe place.
October 17th, 2022  
she looks very interested in her surrounds :)

Elsie is clearly taking it all in. Pleased to see she has colour-coordinated her jumper and accessories, like a proper lady. Such a sweet shot.

She has a lovely alert face

Sweet portrait!
October 18th, 2022  
She has such a sweet face
October 18th, 2022  
I think she's enjoying being carried. Nice shot.

Wonderful to see you two together and bonding perfectly. Ruby was so close to you and Elsie will grow to be the same. I see it is getting cold there from how you are dressed. Still in short-sleeved shirts or t-shirts and shorts here.

A lovely selfie

The bond is there! such a lovely capture of you and Elsie, I am sure she enjoys her trips out and I am sure you both are itching for the day she is free to have "proper" walks with you.
October 18th, 2022  
Awww, hi, Elsie and your person! This is very sweet!
October 18th, 2022  
Lovely capture of the two of you! I love her eyes!

I’m sure Ruby won’t mind Elsie wearing her coat…!
