GSD's and swimming
Do most GSD's like to swim? Must be good exercise for them and their joints - just like us.

Sorry for laughing, i just remembered Titon's initial swim! Although it was far from what he expected..... Green moss covering a disused canal, thought it was grass.

So needless to say he isn't the biggest fan!

I think it will however depend upon the dog's previous life experiences, but so far with Skye she has took to it like a duck to water

How long is it before your new arrival?

If all goes to plan, the last week of December/early January.

I've got a pool so I am hoping he'll like going in it,

Maddie is not into it at all. Will paddle up to her belly, sometimes, shes definitely a land lover. It's a shame, we live beside a beach during the week.

We don't know if she ever got to experience water when she was young.

Great pics. Had to laugh at the snorkel comment.

What about the back stroke?
