Hi Moli just post some pics of Busta having a swim
Busta loves water as soon as he see it he dives straight in.
When he was a pup he dived in off the bank about 3 feet high swam around abit came back and could get out. I had to lift him out be his collar.

Swimming is good exercise for dogs. Mine are not too keen but they can do it. I believe it is true that some Boxers, and probably other breeds too, will just sink to the bottom with a puzzled look on their faces

Thats how Roxy learned to swim but she does'nt like deep water, she just saw a seagull far away on the waves and went after it, she got the shock of her life when she realised how far out she was, It was quite funny from where I was standing! :smt005

Luca hates water, she even bounces around a puddle to avoid putting her feet in it

Storm likes puddles, but only to dig in. A larger expanse of water and you won't see her tail for dust

Shaan doesn't mind water, as long as it isn't in the bath
