For the 4th of July celebration, Ms. Beth and I went to visit our good friends Tony & Anna, and all of their dogs. Best of all, they have a great big swimming pool, which was so nice to enjoy on the hot 4th of July!
I've been in lakes and ponds, but never a swimming pool! It was kinda scary at first, but Ms. Beth looked like she was having a good time. I rode on a float for a while, but that wasn't that much fun. Then, someone got out the tennis ball..... and my fear of the clear, blue water quickly disappeared!!
Ms. Beth says I need to take swimming lessons because I splash too much! Apparently there's an art to swimming, and I need to practice! But you can bet that I didn't let that stop me from chasing the tennis ball!! I got a little worried when I couldn't get the ball on the first grab or two, but Ms. Beth encouraged me to keep going for it and I got it!!!!
I swam back to her every time and made her throw it again and again! She made me take turns with Grace the Springer Spaniel because she said that she was worried that I would overheat or drown myself. WHATEVER!!! I love tennis balls and I love chasing them into the pool!!
Now she'll just have to take me more often so that I can practice my swimming ;)
