Nice.
very cool
We had a dog who swam with a mallard duck all summer. Just as we thought the dog was going to do the duck in, it would go under the water and come up on the other side of him. They swam all day.
BFF ...way kewl.
Thanks. I needed that this morning.
where is this?
I liked how the dog walked down all those steps before he got in the water. I have a young black Lab. I’ll try her swimming skills next summer.
I like swimming with dolphins.
They’re my friends...
Nice, but the hotel called Ben?
Thanks for the post.
Man’s best friend(s)!
But can the dolphin respond to, “give me a flipper.”
Heartwarming video. Between this and the rescue of America, the bald eagle, my week is made.
Thanks, nice to see this amid all else going on in the world!

No need to wait.
My daughter got a chocolate lab 8 years ago now, and we took the choco out with my golden, who lived to swim.
That little lab was maybe 5 or 6 months, saw my golden swimming and went right in. Like a champ. Scared us a bit, because she went all the way to the other shore, 50 or 60 yards. First time swimming.
Still to this day, the fastest swimmer I have ever seen.

I am kind of afraid I won’t be able to get her out the water. Right now listening is not her strong suit. She’s awful cute however.
My wife and I got a rescue puppy 6 months ago. He looks like a cross between a Rottweiler and a German Shepherd. But he could be part Retriever, the way he swims. We took him to our lake house with the grandkids and he took to the water immediately. Played with the kids in the shallow water on the shore at first and then started riding on the various water craft we have, especially the paddle boat. He likes to ride on the pontoons. Then one day my wife went on a long swim towards the center of the lake and back. When she turned around to go back to shore, guess who was a right behind her? The dog had swam over a hundred and fifty yards and had no problem returning with her. He loves the water. No fear at all. And he’s not full grown yet.
