Border Collie's are the best. We had one for 14 years, and he loved to swim in our pool. In fact, he was about the only one that swam in that pool. He had webbed feet and at the age of 8 weeks, Joe and I were in our bedroom, heard a splash and Joe said, that dog is swimming laps. And he never stopped until about the age of 13 when his body was just giving out. It broke my heart because he so loved swimming. It was just heart breaking when we had to put him down. That was 9 years ago and that was our 4th and final dog. |
