Hot day? No Problem!

Ahh summer! I love this time of year except for days like today. It was in the mid 90's with 90% humidity and no wind. Talk about a day where even walking outside your door causes you to break out in a sweat. A morning walk was out of the question since I've been pretty sick with a head cold so about noon I decided to load Nubs up in the car and drive him over to the river.

Now Nubs isn't a water dog at all. For the longest time getting him to go past his knees was impossible. Even me out in the middle of the river wouldn't bring him out where his tummy touched the water. On top of this Nubs HATE retrieving. He'll chase the item in question but won't normally pick it up and forget bringing it back to you. If your lucky enough for him to grab the item He'll walk 3 ft with it, drop it and then head back to you with his big grin and a wag in his step.

The last time I took Nubs out he started retrieving with a stick in the water, and I started to toss it out further and further each time until it was just to the point where he had to have his whole body in the water to get his stick. We stopped at that point and called it a day (you know always end it on a good note). I don't think I'll ever have a Dock Diving Dog, but I will at least have a dog that enjoys water :)

AHHH! It's the headless Pit bull!!!!!!


Oh wait never mind


"I'm having so much fun!"


Resting for a bit (He has a thing for Picnic Tables)


Can you find the Pit Bull?


There he is!


And videos! Please ignore my annoying high pitched voice. I always use it when I'm encouraging Nubs to do something. It's a bit annoying for Humans but he loves it.
