A doggie date with Mouse at Whiteman Park

Whiteman Park is one of our favorite hang outs and Mouse came along on two trips to Whiteman while she was with us. The area is completely fenced so it is ideal for dogs who haven't quite got the hang of recall yet. Mouse doesn't stray far from her humans so I think her recall will get better rather quickly.


Her family had finally gotten her pretty pink collar, so she gave Barbie's gold spangly one back. I am sure it is the first of many collars this pretty little girl will call her own. You can't have a dog as pretty as that without having accessories for her! 

There was another foster Greyhound there called Steel. I recognised him from his photos on Facebook and he is a very handsome blue brindle boy.


The girls agreed that Steel is a very handsome big boy, though he was definitely a bit aloof, just like Barbie. I tried to get cuddles but he ignored me!


Barbie had a pretty quiet day, I don't think she wanted to run with Steel as she doesn't like to lose her self-made races around the park.


We all laughed at Mouse's cute running style as she ran around and had the time of her life. She didn't seem to mind if anyone else was faster.


I have been playing around with an 'automatic' editing video application on my new tablet, and this was the result of the day's romping.



This is my manually edited video. Which one do YOU like better?


Mouse was a bit overwhelmed when she came in the gate but after she had regained her bearings she recognised me and came bounding over for a cuddle. By the end of the day she was giving everyone else cuddles as well. She is such a sweet girl!

It is so good to see her getting along well in her new home.

That looks SUCH good fun. I really wish we had some fenced off park areas I could get the hang of running free in. Deccy x
Wish we had a place like that where I could run free. Although I think I'd probably just hide behind the MOTH.
Looks like everyone had a great time! Hard for me to say which of the video starts I liked best. The "automatic" intro was cool, but I liked the one you put together too. I'm no help.
Bet Mouse was really pleased to see your two again. They are having a great time. I like both videos although I think the one you edited has a really spontaneous feel to it.

Looks like a fun time was had by all! I think I like the manual edited one best.
Was a grey-t morning !!!.. Mouse couldn't stop smiling all the way home even though she was exhausted. Can't wait to do it again. :-) both edits really cool, manual edit more detail (less effects)

yes we can do it again, soon! when Nic is here this time ;) will txt you next time we plan on going :)
Lots of fun! We too enjoy the off leash walks and running around. As for your videos, I think the manually edited is a little bit better. Not that there is anything wrong with the other one! (great subject matter too of course!)
Pink collar looks great on Mouse. What a fun time romping around
It's great that you are able to see Mouse and show her new owners such a wonderful place for dogs. She looks great in the pink collar. I prefer your video but the other one would be good for when you don't have the time to edit yourself :)

yeh I think I might pay for the Magisto app so I can play with it some more for when I can't spend a lot of time editing ;)
Looks like that you have been giving good training to your dog and it has been the best experience of my life. I really want to say that it has been a good time to talk about the pets.
