[who knows what evil?]

Was the dog on a leash?

My yellow lab sees water she is in.

And if it had been marked the dog would have read the warning and stayed out?

Hmmmmm.. I would think a dog would have the instinct to detect the safety of the ditch/water before going all in.. Poor pooch, but I think he probably went numb just a few seconds after jumping in.. I feel for that family.

This makes me just as sad as that giraffe who hit its head on the freeway overpass and died.

If there had been ample signage, chances are the doggie would’ve just ignored it.

Now that was a hot dog

Happens in Yellowstone Park occasionally - often it’s a granola on skinny skis (and his dog) who wants to skinny dip mid-winter...

Unlike the air, water doesn’t require much difference from body temperature to become dangerous.

It's a good thing the owner is more understanding than this angry fellow!

[slouper]

Darwin doggie, just say’n.

Hot dog!

They need to erect signs with a picture of a dog with a red NO circle around it . . . that’ll work. Wait, dogs are color blind aren’t they.
