Where are those pesky squirrels?


Emmy gets into squirrel mode when she spies a pesky squirrel by the park wall. She may be one of the fastest whippets in the park but I think she gave this squirrel too much of a start. Squirrel survived! One nil to the squirrels.

Muppet wears out six dogs in one morning


Muppet, the skinny beige whippet who thinks she is the fastest whippet in London did a great job of exercising six slightly overweight dogs in Greenwich Park this morning.

Emmy annoys sweet chestnut pickers

Emmylou the fastest whippet in Greenwich Park spent an enjoyable morning trying to steal what she thought was picnic food from the poor scared people collecting sweet chestnuts in the park today. Emmy at full speed skidded to a halt at each group of people and tried to stick her nose in their bags. I've realised that not all people like thieving skinny dogs, so for the next couple of weeks I'll expect a bit of abuse from the nut gatherers of Greenwich Park.
