I've been walking pups Wade, the German Shepherd, and Ella the cockapoo for a while but today Bertie came along for a wee puppy party at the beach in Erskine, Renfrewshire to join in the fun.  This is Bertie's first walk off the lead.  At the beginning, he was very timid and didn't like the walk at all.  But he came around so fast as they do at that age and by the end of his first walk I knew he was beginning to enjoy it.  Today was his third walk and he's ready to get off lead to play with his new pals, Wade and Ella.  So here are the pics of how he got on.
