River Dogs (Pic Heavy)

The past 2 days I've taken the dogs down to the Mississippi for a swim.

The Thursday was Bull & Duke. (Katie was going to go too but she was mad I wouldn't let her drive and decided to stay home. :D )

What'cha mean I can't drive?

Duke got in the river then decided it was time to go.

Where's he going?

:eek: Bull out farther than Duke...alert the presses.

I don't swim, I wade.

Duke on the other hand :D

Today was Lappy and Katie's turn. (They also didn't try to run as much so there are more pictures of them.)

Lappy's first time seeing the river.

No really I'm good here...

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...gs/8060005.jpg
Noooooooooo....

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...gs/8060006.jpg
Crud!

Katie thought over there was more interesting than watching me teach Lappy to swim.

And got stuck in Gumbo mud.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...gs/8060015.jpg
I'm OK!

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...gs/8060021.jpg
I don't want to get Katie!!!

Ok. Time to move locations. Somewhere less swallow-Katie-whole-ish.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...gs/8060023.jpg
I'll just watch the truck.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...gs/8060024.jpg
Fine I'll help Katie

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...gs/8060025.jpg
No really Mom...I'm all swam out.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...gs/8060029.jpg
Dad you are just standing there with the camera letting her do this to me.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...gs/8060030.jpg
Gravel sliding...can't get out.

We can go home now right Mom?

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...gs/8060039.jpg
Mom?

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...gs/8060038.jpg
Katie ran straight into the water.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...gs/8060043.jpg
Ta Da! Crap he was swimming.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...gs/8060045.jpg
Yes! Got him to do it.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...gs/8060046.jpg
Ok, I swam. Can we get outta here now?

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...gs/8060047.jpg
Katie is tired. We're leaving. (BTW I'm not trying to be cool-my sandal came off)

Done! Hope you enjoyed!

That looks like a nice way for the pups to keep cool! Cute pics! :D

really nice pictures and funny too.;):D

Looks like they had a great time swimming! Wish mine liked the water.

As you can see from the pictures Lappy does not. He thinks the only good water is coming from a hose or in a bowl in his eyes. Maybe it's the Chow or Husky in him.
