Title: Big day for the lab pup
Post by: doubletall on June 22, 2014, 08:29:32 PM: We were visiting friends that live on Filucy Bay today and our 15 week old lab decided it was time to swim. Without coaxing she jumped off the dock and swam for shore. I think it surprised her a bit, she wouldn't do it again. A few hours later she walked in from the beach and went for a swim.

She also learned not to drink salt water; the hard way. She drank from the bay before I could stop her and a while later she wined a bit, got up and dug a hole and barfed up her lunch then used her nose to fill the hole with dirt. I've never seen a dog do that before.

I took him and my 10 yr old lab down to the hood canal today to throw balls for them, and Rex actually went in past his paws and swam after it. Not a real good swimmer yet, but he swam.
