Loving ourselves some water

Over at Cowspotdog they are having a challenge to show pictures of the dog beasts loving or hating the water. Now, for us, this is pretty easy. In fact, I may have already shared a number of these water pictures on the blog.

Since I can't choose just one:

Koira was anxiously waiting for me to get in the water too, she loves going down the rapids with me

The backyard swimming pool is great relief from the heat of the summer

Even the cat likes the pool

And Koira loves fishing for rocks underwater. Actually, I had to start discouraging that behavior because she started obsessing over rocks at the river and beach so much that she would bloody her paws trying to dig them out of the sand, and I worry about her wearing her teeth down on them.

Pallo generally avoid the water. Here he is gingerly thinking about joining me and Koira in the water (he chose not to in the end)

And, Pallo's favorite activity around water, hunt the fish

  3. Love the photo of Koira's head in the rapids! Poor Pallo is very much like my Jess (water is to be tolerated, really), and Lola's halfway between them.

  5. It does look like they are having a ball in the water. My dogs would probably like it but what a mess having to dry the Yorkies coats afterwards. Now the one of Pallo is adorable and I can just see mine tipping on in. :) Fun times!
