Day at the Lake

This weekend has been really fun for us. (at least so far!) Travis took Friday off again, so we had time to do a couple of things. But what we really had fun doing was taking Dewy to the Lake. It was an absolutely gorgeous day on Friday and we didn't want to just sit inside and do nothing. So we thought that we should do something with Dewy. Taking a walk didn't sound like fun. So we thought that we would take her to the dog park, but when we got there it was busy so we didn't wan to let our dog that isn't always sure about other dogs around a bunch of dogs, so we thought that we might take her to The Cove. It is a little park area that allows dogs and is right next to the lake. So we took her there, and she LOVED it! Her and Travis got into the water and she never wanted to come out. She was so funny to watch.

She has never really been around water, other than her baths, so even though she is black lab mix she still doesn't know how to swim. Which made her hilarious to watch! She didn't realize that she can walk normal in the water, when she was in the shallow end she would high step it. She looked like she was prancing, but the further she went out the less she could high step. So she started bouncing. Exactly like a frog. She would jump, come all the way out of the water, and land where ever she wanted to be. And she refused to go any further than she could touch!

Travis took her out where he knew she couldn't touch to see if she would swim. As soon as she hit the water and realized she couldn't touch she started working the front legs but did nothing with the back ones, so she had a really hard time. She made it the very short distance to Travis and nearly climbed him so that he would rescue her!!

I sat on the shore the entire time, so I got some really good laughs! She had so much fun on Friday that after we did some stuff Saturday morning we took her back. She loves the water, just not swimming.The best part of all this is she comes home and sleeps all day! It is great.

Today is raining. This morning is church and grocery shopping!!! So we will see how today goes, but I hope it is as good as these last few days!
