Joe At The Lake

Each time we are on the lake Joe demonstrates again that he is a retriever through and through.  9 times out of 10 he's able to find a toy or stick or something on the beach to carry around.  This time somebody had left a plastic shovel behind so he claimed it as his own.  He swam with it, played fetch with it and generally just had a good time.

We always know when he's had enough swimming and gets tired because he'll swim to the boat and kind of hold on to the ladder til we get over to him and help him back in.  We take off his lifejacket, he shakes the water all over the place, then he finds a place to work on his suntan.

Doggie good times......   :)

Hi! I just found your blog through Christian Knitters Ring.
Looks like your dog loves to go boating too. We take our little bear out on the boat. He loves to stand on the bow of the boat. Just like on Titanic. It's pretty funny. We always get lots of looks when he does that.
