Waffles LOVES when I get the hose out....she's possessed!

Wicket RUNS as far away as he can get so he DOESN"T have to get wet!:p

Tango LOVES water!
Echo doesn't like water unless she thinks she has to save somebody:rolleyes:
Tia HATES water!

It's not a great pic, but here's one of Tango at the River.

Miss Hoppy absolutely HATES water. If the floor is even the teensiest bit damp, she has to stop and clean her paws as soon as she gets to a dry spot. Baths are an anathema, needless to say!

Kai gives me an evil eye during his baths but during our last trip to the lake, he went in up to his shoulders and started trying to swim.

Kaedyn hates getting wet but will tolerate it. He has also mastered the evil eye :p. At the lake, he put a foot in and decided that was enough. :rolleyes:

The cats don't mind it, the rats love to swim in the tub, not sure about the bun- I have never given her a bath, but the humane society has.

Nebo loves to splash in water, bite at it, etc. He will always go right in a lake, but only as far as he can touch...he refuses to swim.

Reggie and Sydney don't seem to care for water. Reggie used to fetch sticks out of lakes when he was younger though.

Blaze loves water almost more than anything in the world!! ;) (those other more superior things are me, his friends and family, and his food!) He LOVES to swim in pools, and just get sprayed by the hose, but he HATES rain or any kind of thunderstorm! :rolleyes: It's hilarious. He also hated all kinds of water when he was a puppy, because he thought we (my siblings and I) were going to drown in our pool! (he would bark like crazy and run circles trying to say, "Hey guys, you know how DANGEROUS this water is??!!") :D When he figured out it was fun, he loved it and would swim a lot. Blaze is still like that today!

Domino (my guinea pig) hates getting baths, and when I give him baths in the sink, he jumps out (a big jump for a little guy!) and is all slippery too! :D It's funny!

Zoey my GS absolutely LOVES the water. She'll retrieve, swim, dunk her head under, dive off a dock, etc, etc, etc. BUT she hates baths. Go figure. :rolleyes:

My dogs like the water at the beach, as long as they can touch.

Samantha HATES baths. She refuses to have all four paws down at once. She will alternate lifting up one of her front paws like a priss, the entire time.

She wasn't thrilled with her wading pool the first time mean old Mommy threw her in, but she'll play in it now. I'm aching to get her to a beach to see how she likes the ocean.

Snowy hates water. She'll go in, run out and start crying! When I try to give her a bath, she tries to get out of the bathtub and ends up soaking me, herself, and the whole room!

Yep! Daisy's a water dog in every sence of the word! She loves to roll in the mud, swim in the pool, play in puddles, play in her kiddie pool, you name it. She's never been to the beach, though, so we'll have to see what she thinks of that one day.

Molly's the complete opposite. She hates getting bathes, and doesn't like to be wet, *period*. Even when she drinks, her tougue only slightly touches the water! ;)

I couldn't vote, since I have six pets. ;)

Digger and Chubby, as labs, love the water. They love to swim in our pond that we have in our yard.

Otis isn't fond of the water, but he doesn't mind his baths too much, and doesn't really swim other than that.

Prince, on the other hand, HATES water. He hates anything that has to do with water.

Soda & Cracker, love their showers and they open up their wings; they really enjoy it. I haven't tried actually letting them bathe, but I would love to see their reaction.

Awwww.......those are adorable pictures of Zoey & Daisy.
I love the one of Zoey where it looks like she's "diving" into the to "get it". That's so cute! (GiantSchnauzer)

I LOVE the pictures of Daisy too....they're all co fun!(GoldenRetrLuver)
Not to be nosy but do you rent or own your home? Just wondered because your pictures of that pool are beautiful!
I wish we lived in a warmer climate to be able to swim outside all year long!!!!:) I don't think my husband or Wicket would care but Waffles & I.......oh, we'd have a field-day!!!!!:D
Tina

(Dogz) Oh, I guess you wouldn't be able to vote then.
It sounds like you have your hands full!:D
You must have a big pond. We have a small pond in the backyard with Koi in it. The dogs don't bother the fish but they always try to drink out of it!:rolleyes:

Thanks!

Oh man.. I WISH that was our pool! :o Those pictures of Daisy were actually taken at my grandmother's house, so it's her pool, and yes, she owns her house. :)

Thanks! I should have videotaped her retrieving. She reminds me of a gazelle when she retrieves 'cuz of the way she hops. LOL! It's so funny.
Zoeys pretty darn good at swimming/retrieving considering she's a breed bred to work on land. ;)
