Yes, we have a water dog on our hands!
Otis has enjoyed heading down to the water to cool off this summer. His first adventure in the big lake he didn't venture in very far ...
He played it safe staying where he could touch - and the top of his head never got wet. It was actually pretty funny!
But then we got brave and thought we'd take him out for a dingy ride to go swimming in a little bit deeper water ...
At first he just floated in the water letting the life jacket do it's job. Slowly but surely we started to see his feet paddle and he was doing what came naturally - swimming!
He loved going after his water frisbee and bringing it back to us.
Eventually we took off the life jacket and brought him in to the beach throwing the frisbee out further and further to see how he'd do and I'm happy to say - I think swimming is in his blood :)
He had an absolute blast!
Now every time we walk down to the marina he expects to go swimming - but getting all that hair dry takes some time so we limit the swimming adventures :)
