Awww poor Dylan now I see what ya mean about him getting hurt! Nice looking red bandages though lol and I know he'll love all that extra loving until he heals!
It's so great when the forum dobers and peeps get to meet up ... Color us jealous! Thanks though for the great videos and pics ...DOBERAWESOMENESS!!!
Smart boy! Now teach your human brothers that so mom doesn't have to deal with it, lol.
It's really OUR thread, lol.
Now Dylan is the one that looks like a Walking Horse! I put baggies on his feet to keep them clean when we go outside to potty, and he does the bicycle walk!
I think her back feet were actually touching the bottom. It's relatively shallow right there. It looked so funny when she was doing it. She was splashing so much water! Poor girl got hosed down afterward with well water from our garden hose! :cold: She smelled like pond scum! Then, she got thrown in the pool! Rough day, huh River?
truly fabulous photos Jess... River looks to be the happiest dog EVER! fabulous property... Is that Dylan's Mom's yard? good lord a mercy that is fabulous! kill to have a piece of property like that there!
Yep, that's our place. But only on the weekends. We bought it to get away from the rat race, and so that our kids would have a place to enjoy being boys, getting dirty, communing with nature, hunting, fishing and just relaxing. Doesn't hurt us to do the same now and then. Down there, it's no makeup, no worries, no trying to impress anyone. And it's awesome for doggies!! It can be a headache, and is a lot of maintenance, but boy is it worth it! Of course, the swimming pool doesn't hurt....
River missed him a bit. In the house she kept going back over to his crate and trying to get him to play. Poor Dylan. She had a blast in the water, though. I'm excited to get them both out to play again once Dylan is better. I know she's going to try to get him to chase her into the water. I'm thinking a dog float coat is in order for next time, though.
She loves it now! Runs right in with no fear in her, starting to scare me, though. Going to have to keep her in a float coat from now on so I don't have to go swimming after her. Of course she has her own style, lol. You know this girl, always her own way. I just find it hilarious that she's so graceful on the ground but flounders in water.
We took her swimming before River and I left for the summer. She just swims like a typical Dobe, butt down. They don't float very well since they have very little fat so they don't understand that they have to keep their butts up. The float coats help but I forgot hers in CO so I'm going to have to get her another one. You might consider one for your boy. It really helps keep their butts up and smooth out their swimming.
She loved every minute of it.Poor girl got hosed down afterward with well water from our garden hose! :cold: She smelled like pond scum! Then, she got thrown in the pool! Rough day, huh River?
We found it pretty heavenly, too.
That she did! Stupid me for not checking the water depth before encouraging her to jump. Didn't realize it was over my head, lol. Poor girl got a little spooked by that. Thankfully I'm a strong enough swimming to get my footing back and help her out. Let me know if you want me to pick up a coat for him when I get River's this weekend.
But it's really nice! After buying Dylan's new shoes, I'd better be careful, lest the husband start suspecting something! 
I've been building a new first aid kit to keep down at the farm. Can't wait 'til he sees that one!
Bass Pro. The ones they carry are the yellow ones we have back in CO. They are only like $20/each. If you want I'll just grab him the same size we have for Spock. Should fit him well.Are you going to Cabela's? Bass Pro? REI has an awesome one, but it's like $80!
Call me when you find out how much they are. If they're not too expensive, I may consider having you grab one for me. Do I need to get girth measurements?
