Thanks, he's quite entertaining . . . at times.
He takes to water like. . . well, a labrador as the breed was created to fetch fishing nets out past the surfline. Any time he gets near water, he goes ga-ga and unfortunately we can only let him in the pool a couple of times a year because of the other thing labs are known for: shedding. I've literally spent a couple of hours cleaning clumps of black hair out of the pool after one of his swim-days.
We vacation annually at the coast and he goes absolutely bonkers in the surf.
He was really bummed out late last summer since we nearly lost him to a stomach torsion and he had to be kept out of the pool so he was not a happy dog. He's also turned out to be a money-maker . . . I sent some video of him to the Animal Planet Channel for their PLANET'S FUNNIEST ANIMALS show and eventually ended up with $500!
