That "Nawww, not this time" last second balk happens with Zipp & Zopp -
aka Smokey & Cinder - but it's a bit more of a *cluster* when only ONE backs out!

Since they're connected (about 2 feet apart) with their Y-Thingy, and then
secured with a 20 foot rope lead - when one DOES and one DOESN'T follow the *JUMP* command
to launch off a dock - the results can be *messy* at best!

The one that dove in quickly stops all forward progress no matter how hard s/he tries to swim;
and the non-diver is struggling to hold onto the edge of the dock with all 4 paws.
And I'm trying to redistribute the rope and free up a hand-paw to give the reluctant one
a firm *PUSH* over the edge. I've used a FOOT more than once!

We've been know to draw a crowd at times.
