a golden retriever who doesn’t know how to swim, sure ;)
My wife’s family has had a ton of Goldens. One of them apparently didn’t want to swim at the start. Her father had the bright idea to tie its collar to their other golden at the time. Threw a toy into the water and naturally the one that knew how to swim ran in to fetch it and yanked the other one in with him. The one that didn’t “know” how to swim proceeded to attempt to sit on the other to stay afloat and almost drowned the poor pooch. Thankfully my father in law did manage to rescue them, but I don’t think he tried that again.
That guy is fucking dumb
I mean, he is a respiratory therapist who smokes, so…
he is a respiratory therapist who smokes
WOW.
wow.
Dudes so jaded from work he thinks breathing is his enemy
“I’ll show those jerks at the office <cough> ha!”
Sure sounds like he’d be entertaining to talk to, as long as I keep my animals away fun him
I had a Labrador retriever that didn’t know how to swim. When he was a puppy, he fell off a dock while we were trying to teach him to swim and he refused to try to swim after we’d gotten him back to shore. (We weren’t trying to teach him to swim from the dock. We were taking in the view before heading back to shore and he misstepped.)
He loved water the whole rest of his life, but would only go where he could stand.Probably more like the poor thing couldn’t get out of the pool.
This is an all too common thing for people with dogs, your dog can swim but it can’t fly and it doesn’t have hands to climb a ladder.
One of the first things we did at my house that had a pool was to introduce our dogs to the water and direct them to the way out.
Sure, did you think their webbed toes and their water spaniel ancestry would mean anything?
wait don’t dogs instinctively know how to swi–
SHHH I DID GOOD DEED SAVED DOG FROM DROWNING
