Sorry it took me so long to reply, didn't get any notifications.

Thanks everyone

Digi is my special little girl & I've given up a lot for her. In 2 weekends my friend & I have plans to take her & her lab swimming. Digi has a lifevest to help in swimming. I fear becuase shes so think & has no body fat too keep warm that she'll cramp & then will drown. I know I worry to much, but Digi means the world to me & I feel obligated to take that extra step in keeping her safe as she is a little different then the average dog & it is too easy for her to get hurt.

Her life vest has a handle on it so I plan to attach a 100ft leash to it so she can romp around. We're hoping with Stitch (the choco lab) being there, he'll show her that swimming is fun & easy to do

Her first swimming exp didn't go well as I didn't plan it & she could have drowned if she didn't surface (I couldn't see her). But she is fine with bath time & loves her bubble baths with me so I think she'll be ok. I'll prob carry her out to show her that it's safe & fun (she'll follow me anywhere).

I'll make sure to take plenty of pics
ps she looks soooooo cute in the green lifevest
