Chewy, like most Golden Retrievers, LOVES water. If we are walking along a shoreline, he starts pulling towards the water in hopes of a foot soak, a refreshing dip, or perhaps a game of fetch. When we get close enough to the water, he looks back with that dopey smile, as if to ask, "Can we go swimming?"

Can we go swimming? |
 |
How about here? |
 |
Can we go down there? |
Sometimes he takes matters into his own hands, and just goes for it:
 |
Oooohh, water... |
 |
Success! |
He always looks super pleased with himself when he manages to get in the water, whether with permission or not!
 |
I smell now, and it's GREAT! |
To keep his fur/skin clean and healthy, Chewy usually gets a dreaded bath after swimming, but I think he would say it's still worth it!

I am displeased by this bath. |
Our Sheba is the same way...as soon as she sees water she's pulling towards it! Our swimming spots around here are pretty clean, so we don't usually give her a bath afterwards though.
