Tucker just needs to explore his Own Back Yard ...
Mom & Dad already HAVE a lil pond back there ... Tucker-Sized!!
Ah, but that pond is deeper than Tucker is tall - he would have to swim in it and he doesn't find swimming as much fun as playing in the water, digging at the bottom of the pool, biting bubbles, etc.

Yes, I think next year the Kuhn backyard will add a small pool. Most of my dogs won't go near it but Taggert likes to get in and cool his feet down and strangely enough dip his whole mouth/nose area in it - like he was getting something from the bottom. Who knows maybe Pippi or Dazzi will become "water" dogs too!

Thanks for all the nice comments about my cutie - he is a real TRIP!!!!!
