Took Ralph to Paws in the Park, just outside Maidstone today. It was ok. I had hoped for a few more stands etc as needed to get a few bits and bobs, but came away pretty empty handed.

Anyway, they did have big tanks and were encouraging the dogs to have a go.

It was Ralph's first time at anything like that - he's only been up to his tummy pretty much in the sea - definitely hasn't swam or anything.

The guy didn't push him too much, but he had a go with proud mummy cheering him on!

Getting ready...

It wasn't! I put my hand in it and I was freezing! I felt for the poor guys that worked there. They were only in wet suits and were shivering!
