Learning to Swim (Sort Of)

Learning to Swim (Sort Of)

My humans set up a pool in the backyard. A POOL. Just for me.

Well, for me and my doggy friends. When they come over, we all splash around together. It’s basically a pool party. I’m a very good host.

When the water comes out of the hose to fill it up, I try to bite it. I know I can’t catch water. I KNOW this. But my mouth doesn’t listen to my brain when water is happening. It’s like my Lab DNA takes over completely.

Once the pool is full, I wade in and just… stand there. Feeling cool. Feeling accomplished. Sometimes I splash a little. Sometimes I drink the pool water even though I’m not supposed to. Don’t tell anyone.

The best part is after – when I shake off next to my humans and they make that funny yelling sound. Gets them every time.

Summer pool days are the best days. I’m already counting down until next year.
