Ebby Learns To Swim // Dogs On Thursday

Featured Journal

Last week’s Dogs on Thursday post was not one that was planned.  Although we did expect the outcome eventually, it was not welcome.  Anyway, this week I can post photos of Ebby’s first experience with swimming.  While on our trip last week we were able to visit the Outer Banks of North Carolina.  If you own a dog and want to go to the beach with them, don’t go to Florida, go to North Carolina!  Florida does not welcome dogs!!  Anyway, Ebby was more than welcome on the beaches in Kill Devil Hills, NC and she learned to do a little dog paddle on her own.  Here are some shots of the trip and of her experience.  Enjoy.

I am too little to go out there!

    Congratulations, Ebby! Don’t let anyone say you “look like a drowned rat”. (That’s what my dad always said when I got out of the pool.) I think you look sweet, even wet.

    Ebby do you think you could come to Oklahoma and teach my dog Norman to swim? He runs and hides from puddles, pools, and any gathered source of water!
    Anyway, congrats on the swimming!!!
