My 15 week old puppy Daisy had a baptism yesterday! Well more accurately she went for her first swim - unplanned. I was skimming some weed from the garden pond, which is raised about two feet from the ground. Suddenly I saw that Daisy was up on the wall next to me then before I knew it, splosh, and she was in!
She looked panic-stricken and started to doggy paddle frantically with her head up in the air. Then I grabbed her by the collar and hauled her out. She shook her coat a few times and then hid in the bushes. I then wrapped her in a towel and she seemed a little in shock, trembling or shivering - I'm not sure. She was quite clingy so I gave her a nice cuddle and rubbed her down. So she has had her first swim!
Maybe she will get to like it and join my golden retriever for a swim when we go to the beach. She is water mad and gets in at any opportunity. I hope they will enjoy much fun together.
