Sadie's creek story

Most dogs I've seen love the water. Maybe you just haven't had enough experience in it, you think? During the hot weather, instead of creeks and rivers, I've seen dog people get their 'kids' a little swimming pool to help them keep cool. You might like that when the time comes. That way you won't have to nasty, stinky creek wet.

First the boots, now the stick. Got any more funny creek stories? :D

Oh, poor Sadie, as if one time was not enough. Of course we cannot have you hanging out and smelling like a creek. Have a wonderful nap.

Stories like this really make me miss my hound. We had to have her put down last week because of old age and she also had a tumor on her mouth. With that said, Michela never did like the water at all. We had opposites with our dogs, you couldn't get Michela into the water, but our other dog, Jasmine loves the water to the point that when we take her over to my mother's house she will scale the side of the above ground swimming pool or climb the ladder so she can go for a swim.

Awww you poor baby having to be washed all over again. I would have hated it. I always shake when Im having a bath. You were very brave to jump in the water like this after your friend Snoops. Well Im a Lab also and I dont like water at all. Mom and dad try to convince me to go in the pool but I dont want to. Maybe its because they have to wash me right after all over again. Geez, sounds like we can never win!! Next time Snoops goes into the water, tell him he shouldnt go and that you wont go with him. Stick to your grounds!! lol Woof Woof xx

Oh, Sadie, I know what a nuisance can our Moms be when they want us to be "clean". I haven't had any experience with swimming in the water until now because my Mom is afraid the water could enter my ears and I could develop a nasty ear infection. She always tells me stories about her previous dog who suffered from a rebel ear infection for months only because they went swimming in the river. I don't know if I would like swimming but I have an uncle that complains about this. He doesn't like water either but his Mom insists in taking him to the lake to swim. She says he is going to cool down in the water but he's not interested in swimming at all. He hates water but what to do when our Moms want "the best" for us? His mother even bought a life vest for him. He's so embarrassed because of that vest but I think he looks cool with it. Below you got a picture of my uncle Shadow with his life vest on. Love, Binne
