Clover at the beach

[Sowa]

Not too bad, huh? Can you believe Clover was afraid of the water last year? I got her last July and I took her to beach a lot. She never wanted to go near the water. I'm very happy to show you her beach photos this year :D She only goes into fetch a stick, but she will do this forever!

Her, afraid of the water ever? Surely you jest! Great pictures, she looks very happy! And pretty as well, of course!

[Roxyluvsme13]

She is so pretty! Never would've guessed she was afraid of the water over a year ago! Now, Clover, come tell Brennan water isn't so bad :D because he is not a fan! lol

[happylabs]

What a happy girl. Great pics!!!

[Asiel]

Nice pictures-- she sure doesn't look fearful of water, guess she outgrew it. She seems like she wouldn't mind spending the day in there...

[Sowa]

This was her 3rd time out so far. Her first time was a little hesitant. She'd slowly walk out, and when it was time to swim she seemed a little confused and stopped. Then she'd just leap forward and swim to her stick :rolleyes:

Hi, Clover! I like the fourth picture from the top in the second post, happy girl! I enjoyed seeing you having fun at the beach!

[Varga]

Great pictures. Her fur matches the beach so nicely :D
You're lucky to have a dog who will play fetch and even go into the water to fetch. Makes tiring them so much easier, haha.

Such great pictures she looks like she had a great time playing in the water! It's what Labs do best! ;). She's such a beautiful dog, I love her eyes!

[Asiel]

Great pictures, she seems to love the water-- never did know a lab that could stay out of water. She got over her fear pretty fast, I think it might become her favourite spot from now on.

[Sowa]

Yeah, we were a little surprised when she seemed to like it less and less last summer, but she was just a pup then. (she was born May 20, 2011) I also had to give her a few baths when I first got her cause she got dirty (and smelled when I took her home) so I think she figured water was bad.

I've been taking her to the beach frequently though now that I know she likes it. Yesterday she started playing in it on her own for the first time. She was only going in when I threw a stick. I'm glad to see her enjoying her self so much. I can't wait for it to be warmer so I can swim with her :D

Thanks for all the nice comments everyone :)

Clover, you couldn't be any prettier!!!:love: It looks like you had a great time at the beach. I wish I was there with you!:D

[Freedom]

I DO remember last year, you wanted a dog you could swim with and were worried she'd never do that with you. Ha haaa, she just needed some time to mature!

I love that 4th pic, even though the camera was tilted, makes it seem all the more special. And now she goes in to play without you tossing the stick? I think you are all set, both of you, ha haaa.

[kaycountrygal]

Clover, you go Girl! LOL Loved all the pics. What a happy dog she is and she has those beautiful eyes!!! It sure looks as if she enjoys water now... glad for you.
