Hello everyone. We took Zara to a new place today for a walk. It's place called nine bridges and has a river with banks each side which lots of dog walkers use. Anyway she had lots of off lead time today and really enjoyed it. We met a guy with a chocolate Labrador who asked if Zara would like to play with him. Well they had a fantastic time playing together. The lab called BArney like to keep going in the water and Zara just stood back and watched him  towards the end of the play she followed him down to the water to get a drink and ended up in the water. She had a really quick swim then got back out. I was so proud of her. At least I know she can swim as I wasn't sure if she could or not. Just wanted to share this moment with you.

Its a great relief when they don't sink!

Congratulations.

I will never forget when my first Staffie Buster discovered swimming.

We was walking him off lead on an empty beach on the south coast. The beach had one of thos pools where the approx. 4ft walls keep a pool of sea water behind when the tide goes out.

Buster ran along the beach and jumped the wall and.......Sploosh.

I ran like Usain Bolt to the pool only to find him happily swimming away.

From that day on he loved water and we could not keep him out of Rivers, The Sea, Canals, Puddles anything.

Wow, she must have a lot of trust in the other dog to follow it into the water, well done Zara.
