Maybe we'll try some dock diving!

We had the opportunity to take the girls to another Doggy Swim last week and once again it was way too much fun.  I brought both girls this time and I was really interested to see what Famke would do since she had gone to one of the Doggy Swims last year and had fun but would not jump in the pool from the side.  She would wade in and swim but would not jump in.  I have no idea what changed but the minute she saw I had a squeaky tennis ball she was allll about jumping in the pool from the side.  I think she jumped in and retrieved the ball about 25 times in a row!  She was obsessed with it and watching her jump in was hysterical! I was hoping that watching Famke jump in would have given Flirty the confidence to try it but she wasn't interested.  Flirt decided it was her mission to wait until Famke swam back to the side and then steal the tennis ball...every time!  Poor Famke, she is so incredibly tolerant of her little sister. Flirty also enjoyed jumping on Famke and dunking her under water in the shallows. 

 

 "Throw the ball Mom!!!"

 

 

 "Wheeeeeeee!"

 

"Mission to dunk Famke...complete!!"

Flirty the Water Dane

 

Last night one of the local pools had a Doggie Swim night before they drain and close the pool.  I have brought my dogs to these events every year and they just LOVE IT.  It was Flirty's first year at the pool and she had SO much fun. I had to actually drag her out of the pool when it was time to leave.  

 

 

 She did have a bad habit of wanting to steal the other dog's toys though.  To her credit, she would only steal them for a second and then drop them back in the water. She had the most fun chasing dogs that were chasing after balls and such. 

 

 

 Flirt walks on water!! This group of dog lovers were really getting a kick out of Flirty's epic pool zoomies.  

 

 

"Aw Mom can you quit making me pose so I can go back in the pool!!!"
