    What fun! She looks so happy, lol. Great job, and glad you had the jacket for her, especially when you wrote she swims till she just can't any more.

    My pups have never been to the water, I keep saying I want to take them to the beach (off season).

    That looks like fun!
    We took Zoee out on our boat several times (before we got Taggart). She loved it! We had a life jacket for her when she was small, but she quickly out grew it.
    We just sold our boat. Poor Taggart will never get to experience the boat. Of course he's never experienced snow or camping either. Poor pup. LOL
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I'm not sure how she'd do on a boat... I can see it freaking her out a bit at first.

    The measurements on this life jacket said she should be a medium... I couldn't even get the straps around her! Had to buy a large (rated for a 60-80# dog... she isn't even 40#!!!). But it worked fantastic. For anyone curious, it was the PetCo brand for about $40.

    Wow, looks like a really fun trip!! I LOVE the first pic, it's really cute. I love her life Jacket too Cute. I am glad she was good. Sounds to me like she just doesn't like being with your Ex...

    I wish I could take Mikey on one, but he'd probably freak out. He likes water a decent amount (aside from the pool, but at the park he can't get enough of swimming), but he would probably jump off the boat or something. Do you have to have special permission to include a dog on those raft trips? I am pretty sure at the local park you can't, unless it's your boat I guess.

    Well I'm not sure. I know my mom asked when she made reservations if we could bring her. She said all the lady mentioned was that her nails be cut short (which, they're cut every ~3 weeks and if they were any shorter she wouldn't have any!). Nobody asked to see her vaccine records when we boarded the bus, which kind of scared me considering a TON of people bring their dogs camping, and at one site nearby ours' they had a dog aggressive dog that they did not keep on a leash (they just shouted to us as we walked by "our dog doesn't like other dogs, be careful!!!!!" well HELLOOOOOO, my dog is on a leash, LEASH YOURS IF YOURS IS AGGRESSIVE... ), I'd hate to think of what could happen if someone got bit or someone's dog attacked another campers' dog...
