I've got a swimmer! *5 pics*

And no, this thread is not about Kiara... it's about Mufasa!

My little Moo Man is now a swimmer. ;) While we were on vacation he was fetching like crazy from the lakes and rivers.

When we got home, he wouldn't go in (Kiara insisted on going swimming when we got home early yesterday morning.) But today he's jumping in! We had to show him how to jump from the side, but now he just does it by himself.

So, I've got two tan dogs who stay as far away as possible from the pool and two black & tans who can't get enough of the pool! :D

:D

Awww, go Moo Man!! That's fantastic!!!! :D :D

I've always wanted a dog that swims. :o :rolleyes:

He he, better put an extra pad in that filter, you are going to have LOTS of dog fur in there! No way they are going to stay out now they have tested it.

I hope you have a way to keep them out of the pool area when you aren't around to watch them show off.

Which company makes those toys Moo Man is playing with? I think we should buy stock in it, looks like you will be buying quite a few toys this season.

No worries, my dogs aren't ever allowed outside unless someone is outside to watch them. :)

I need to buy a new one of those toys already! We bought it when we were in Utah and its already got holes in it and the insides are all seperated. Knew I should have bought more than one. ;)

Mufasa seems to be taking after his older sister in ALOT OF WAYS. He's such a handsome boy, love the third picture.

Aww, thats sweet how he has alot in common with Kiara. :)
He looks so handsome all wet like that, especially in the 4th picture!

That's great! I'm always amazed at how well your dogs can jump into the pool. That's the one thing Tango doesn't do. Moo looks like he's have lots of fun!

Whoa! Look at him fly! What awesome action shots! Cool that he jumps in like that. Maybe you can get him into dock jumping like Finn.

Too bad he's not as "wash and go" as Kiara appears to be. ;) He looks good all ruffled and wet. Looks like a fun time!

Awww what a quick learner! I'll have to take Ivy for a test ride and see if she likes the water. How do you introduce them to the water, Kay? And how do you encourage them to swim? We don't have a pool, but there's a pond-like place we can frequent pretty often.

Way to go Moo! You're even adorable soaking wet. Kay, you know I love black and tan dogs, but Moo has stole my heart! :D

Good boy, Mufasa! Great pics, Kay!

wow awesome pics! It's great that he is loving the water now.

There ya go Mufasa! Good boy! :D. My two swimmers would love to come share your pool ;). He looks like he loves it!

Love the diving photos. :) It's so cute, Moo wants to be just like his big sister, Kiara. I think he is going to follow her and do everything she does.

Now Ki has a buddy to swim with since Grant is not so nice in the pool. :rolleyes:

Go, Moo! The third photo from the top just gave me a HUGE smile! :D Hello, precious Muttly family!

Way to go Moo! :D Even though Nebo likes to swim and Keva is a newly converted water dog I still don't think either would jump into the pool like that!

wow those are amazing shots Kay! What a stud moo is! :)

MooBoo is just as adorable wet as he is dry! I love the way he's following in Ki's pawsteps.

Love that first photo of Mufasa. :D

i just have to say how nice of your family to have such a nice pool for your two *swimmin pups*!!! Do any ~*people*~ ever swim in it ?!?!?!


just kiddin!

great pictures ! i bet it is a ton of fun for them to play fetch in the pool !!

Tiki will only go into the water if she sees a fish (a real one or an imaginary one) and Taggart won't touch it even if his life depended on it..
But then again. I don't have a pool and the only water they get to swim in is the cold north atlantic ocean.. so I can't say I blame them. :D

Those are some great photos! This past Memorial Day weekend was Cronos' first time in the water (besides getting a bath.) He was hesitant at first but as soon as we started throwing a stick in... he went nuts and had a blast. :)
