Meet Poppy, our new Portuguese Water Dog puppy friend. She came over to visit us for a play date on Sunday. About a year and a half ago, we had another PWD puppy, Splash, over to visit. That time the weather was so hot, we didn’t really play. Sunday was ideal weather for us fur-coated friends to race, chase, and play! Bailie isn’t a fan of puppies. She came out, said hello, and rushed back inside.
Let’s get started with a look at this little cutie. She is a bit like a brown bear cub and getting photos of her eyes is tough. Like Olivia, she loves to chew on sticks. I think she is about four months old.
I got to meet her first. We all came out one at a time so we didn’t overwhelm her. Puppies are fine in my opinion, but I’m not totally crazy about them. We did some sniffing together and played some chase.
Amazingly, Olivia tried to ignore her at first. She is at that awkward age between a pup and an adult. I think she was trying to be mature but the puppy took over and she couldn’t help but play with Poppy.
Olivia’s wild pants started to take over and Poppy was all set to play. She has no fear of any of us at all. I guess she is one brave little girl.
I’ve loved the pine trees since I was a tiny puppy and being short, I still can run around under them without any trouble. I showed Poppy how to do it and she loves it as well. Olivia doesn’t fit underneath very well because she is taller, but the three of us played a lot of ring around the pine trees games.
Sometimes the three of us went running as a pack. Poppy is speedy and can keep up with us nicely.
Poppy and Olivia did a lot of chasing. Sunday night Olivia crashed hard and early!
Olivia has the crazy eyes when she is really having a good time. We always love to see them!
Every now and then I decided to join in the fun and play some chase myself. Olivia needs to take a break at some point.
Don’t ever count out a Portuguese Water Dog puppy in a game of chase, they are speedy! Watch out, Olivia! Poppy is about to grab you in your little behind!
It was a fun time for all three of us furs. Our moms were a bit chilled after an hour and a half of being outside with us, but dog moms know how to dress for dog play dates in the winter. They love to do that chit chat thing too. We hope to meet up with Poppy again soon so we can play some more chase games! We like her a lot and I think she likes us a lot too. Fun with friends makes us happy!
My GBGV Life is happy, so we’re joining Comedy Plus for Happy Tuesday!
What a fun playdate you all had!!! Great photos!
We had a really good time. Poppy is a lot of fun.
Poppy is right in step with you beautiful ladies. I love her determination and spunk and on top of that she is adorable
Hugs Cecilia
She is not afraid to tangle with the big dogs and we had some real fun running around the yard.
What fun for you girls and Poppy. I bet you all slept well at the end of the day! Do puppies ever run out of energy?!☺
Poppy was pretty wired up when she left, but we think she probably fell asleep on the way home. She is fast and does have a lot of energy.
What fun! Poppy reminds me of my little sister Puffin. We run and play like that, but I had to establish one rule which is you can grab me anywhere except for my tail! My mom and I love my beautiful tail. Beware Poppy will soon be larger than you. XOXO Sparkle
Poppy is about my size now, but not as long or heavy. Mom says I’m like a concrete block, rock solid. We have never had anyone interested in tail grabbing except for cats around here, thankfully.
that is a supercute new neighbor hello poppy!!!
It would be fun if she was a neighbor, but she lives in another town not too far away.
Oh what a cutie pie Poppy is. So full of energy. Looks like your babies are happy about the new addition.
Looking forward to lots of fun posts about Poppy.
Thank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday. Scritches all around and my best to your mom. ♥
She is super cute and a lot of fun as she loves the chase game and also keep away with a stick.

Poppy is precious! Fits right in!
She a lot of fun for us.
That was a big time fun romp gang and little Poppy sure is a cutie!
Olivia and Poppy really raced a lot and Olivia was in bed early that night!
That’s a grand play date, i’m so glad you all had fun.
We sure did. Play dates are always a really fun time.
Autumn romps are better with friends.
It’s great to have sisters to play with but friends spice things up a bit.
WOW! You guys are sure having fun! We love watching dogs play! And Poppy is sure a cutie! We hope we get to see more play dates!
Poppy is a lot of fun and we hope to meet up again after turkey day.
