When I first got my dog, a mini schnauzer I thought that he would enjoy a swim. So I got a kiddie size pool. I put him inside with the water but he would have nothing to do with it. He jumped out. I guess he does not like water. Especially when it is time to give him a bath. He does not like it! But he puts up with it. The look on his face is, 'how much longer?' His m/s brother used to actually jump out of the tub to escape! God must love dogs a smidge more than humans cause God made them the day before he made humans!
