“It’s national pet day and he’s been my puppet for 14 years. I love my Harry! (Harrold when he is in trouble),” wrote Venus in the Instagram caption.
Harry’s age surprised Serena Williams, and she even asked if he really was 14-years-old in the comments section. Looking at Harry, it is really quite shocking to hear of his real age.
“Wow he’s 14???” asked the former World No. 1.
Fans also got an idea of how small Harry was as he comfortably fit inside Williams’ training bag. It is also evident that Venus must often take him to her practice sessions as well.
