Leap Day Birthday for our whippet!

Our new whippet leaped into view today, to celebrate Leap Day. As the official dog wrangler of the Ds, NameMe got the honor of bringing him into the parade ring



then bringing him to a shady spot, and posing for a closeup



and introducing him to his peeps




All we need now is a good name for a whippet born on Leap Day. Blogistas, rally round! Oh, and we need to credit Heather C., since a litle part of her gift of wonderful handspun yarn made his body, and another tiny bit of her gift made his red collar!

Ed. note: I keep forgetting to let you know that blogger now has a function where when you click on the first pic in a post, you get a slide show, not hugely enlarged, but okay. To move from pic to pic, click on them. MaryAnn, where are you when I need your help to remind me to keep my act on the road this way??? in joke, MaryAnn having saved me from a couple of bloopers in a little thing I was doing for her the other day. End of ed. note and whine.

  1. He is the most lovely whippet. How about Tere? Maori for swift. Prounounced with a rolling R, Te-ray.

  2. How cute is that little guy!! I'm not coming up with a name but have to add my vote for Tere - very appropriate for a whippet I think.

  3. On the other hand you could call him Swift (Yorkshire for Tere)....
