Here is Deja on Paugus Bay, jumping between floating chairs.
She has her own float (which wasn't in the water for this pic) that she will jump on/off of randomly throughout the day.
Boxers aren't typically considered water dogs, but this one LOVES the lake.

All our dogs seem to love it at Winni. I wonder why?

These 2 don't much care for swimming, but they'll explore the island until they collapse.

Great photos of your goldens. Mine doesn't like to swim. But she will if my wife and I are swimming and ducks go by. She's very protective of us and will come in and chase the ducks away. We had a near panic this week when she chased ducks away and wouldn't break off when we called her. She had her e-collar on today just in case it happened again and needed some coaxing.

Thanks, Rick35, for the kind words. I'm sure it was a blast of adrenaline when your dog was continuing to chase the ducks.

Although our dogs have a great time in the water, we try to limit it to once or twice a season as a special treat. Our boy has a long and thick mane and it has to be almost totally dried out after he gets wet. 2 years ago when he was just a lad, we made the mistake of not drying him completely and he got a nasty infection from ear to ear around his neck. Had to have his whole mane shaved and he was on anti-biotics and an anti-biotic spray. Not fun for him or us!

Every night a guy in a pickup truck pulls in at Shep Browns and uses a chuck-it to throw a ball into the lake for his golden. The dog will run down the finger and jump in after the ball. They do this a few times and the dog jumps into the truck bed and away they go. Its a fun thing to watch but I wouldn't want my golden to be soggy every night, not to mention potential health issues and probably dried out skin. A dry golden is a pretty dog. Not so much when sopping wet.
