Wow! Sachi! You found a bucket of water … today I found a whole pond! I’m not sure the owners of the pond were too impressed … but I got nice and cool. I think you need to look for one too! *WAG WAG*
Hi Bella,
Wow! A whole pond! There’s a lake on the golf course that I live on, but I’m hoping none of my dogs decide to jump in.
Happy Wednesday!
Colby
Oh my goddness, this is one way to cool off on a hot day. hehehe
Hi Alison,
That was actually the drinking water bucket, but Sachi decided to make it her own personal swimming pool. I guess she’s a water dog.
Thanks for stopping by!
Colby
OMD, that is just too adorable.
Thanks! Sachi was shaking her head in and out of the bucket. It was pretty funny.
Thanks for stopping by!
Colby
Maybe just a little bit bigger!!! BOL! But you are one cutie pie!!
Happy Wednesday! ~Weinerful Gang~
I don’t think she’s seen a pool yet, but I think she’s going to be a water dog.
Thanks for stopping by!
Colby
“Shouldn’t this pool be a little bigger” is exactly what I was thinking!
Super duper cute. Thanks for all the love you send us too. =)
xoxoxoxo,
Erika and Sebastian
Yeah, that was there drinking bucket. I’m not too sure the other dogs were too pleased.
Thanks for stopping by!
Colby
omgoodness! too cute! don’t get stuck in the bucket – i’ve seen that happen before and it does not look at all comfortable
Hi Scrappy,
Yes, that wouldn’t be good if her head got stuck. I think she’s still a little too small for that, but who knows in the next few weeks.
Thanks for stopping by!
Colby
Hahaha! You’ve got the right idea there anyway Sachi! LOL!
It was a hot day so I’m sure a little bucket swimming felt good.
Thanks for stopping by!
Colby
Poor pup – you most certainly do!
Maybe time for a little kiddie pool.
Well the front half gets cool that way! What a cute puppy Sachi is. Toby’s day care uses those cheap plastic kiddie pools for the dogs on a hot day. Toby will at most stand in it but Sachi might enjoy it. At home Toby does enjoy getting wet from a sprinkler (but never the hose).
Re: your poll…can’t vote because though typically we LOVE goldens, Toby is half lab and he’s starting to make me like them a lot too
Hi Amy,
Sorry about the poll. It hangs sometimes. We love both Goldens and Labs so it’s a tough choice for us. By the way the Golden’s are currently in the lead 192 to 183.
Thanks for stopping by!
Colby
Poor Sachi! Come to my house, we have a pool you can lie down in!
Awww…We’d love to go to someones house for swim lessons!
MOWZERS, Sachi! You’re, like, actually getting wet ON PURPOSE! (MOL!) We kittehs kinda avoid that. But on a hot day like it’s been lately, we may hafta rethink our position!!
I’d like to see a similar picture of kittens getting in a bucket. That would be cute.
Thanks for stopping by!
Colby
Oooh – I can’t wait to see your big pool!! Woohoo!! Pool party time
Have fun,
Your pal Snoopy
Hi Snoopy,
I’ve been looking for a new home and hopefully it will have a swimming pool for all the pups to play. If I do you have to come visit.
Take care,
Colby
Hahaha, anyway to keep cool!
Yep, it was a hot day. She was too funny.
Thanks for stopping by!
Colby
Ha ha ha! That could almost be Kuster! I love Sachi’s expression!
She was shaking her head in and out of the water.
Take care,
Colby
Aww, what a cutie – I hope that dip cooled him down!
I think she was feeling much better after a little dip in the water bowl.
Thanks for stopping by!
Colby
Your puppy might like to bath in the water and that’s why he has put their both legs in the full water of Bucket. So he is enjoying well and making some fun in the full water of bucket. I love their this things.
