Our Puppy’s First Swim- Kanga Rescue Dog
We literally searched for months (myself, Jennifer and our two boys) for just the right buddy for our family and McMooose (our 3 yr old lab) at various dog adoption agencies and shelters. We’d find the perfect dog online, only to show up and it had already been placed with a family (a really good thing actually!).
While at the Surfin’ Paws dog surfing contest we finally saw the perfect dog for us at The Pet Rescue Center booth. After completing the application process and a trial visit, we knew she was coming home with us! She is now a member of our family. She is really keeping McMoose active as they chase each other around the yard. Now maybe McMoose can shed those few extra pounds.
This video shows her first swim which was a success — if only for a few seconds. You can see an even higher-definition version on youtube.
Watch closely the very end when McMoose takes off — soaking wet — with Kanga at his tail. The two mischief makers get water and sand all over two sleeping sunbathers. The sunbathers jumped up in shock but weren’t too mad after we apologized. I wish we had a better clip of this incident on film.
