Leia goes swimming


Am knackered.

The woof alert gave me a lie in, well a relative one, waking us up after 0700.  I got up and brushed my teeth, but by the time I got down, my daughter was with he.

After a bit of time of us playing with her, my daughter negotiated the appropriate bribe for me to come with me and Leia, this turned out to be a sausage roll and orange juice from Greggs. I, being fussy about sausage rolls, had a vegan one, which was not too bad.

Our walk took us to the boating lake in Castle Park.  And it was there that Leia, when chasing a duck, went for her first swim.  My daughter has told me not to say who was responsible for this, or holding her lead at the time, but I think it is fair to mention that I have taken her to the pond without incident before.

The photo was taken once she had some time to dry off.

Once we got home we had to bathe her.  Needless to say she needed it.  The amount of dirt that she soaked up in that pool was unbelievable.  

Grooming her after she was dried was a family affair.  I just hope I do not have to bathe her again today.
