Enjoying the River


Here's our dog enjoying a lazy day at the river. She loves being out by the river and fetching sticks. She's great at fetching as long as she can touch the bottom of the river. When the water is low she goes in with no problem, but if the water is high, well then she's a bit skeptical, you see she can't swim. She goes into a panic if her back feet cannot touch the river bottom and it's quite a show. Her front paws start flailing around flapping the water until she gets her footing again. Does your dog know how to swim? Do you think it's instinct with dogs or do they learn how to swim?
