Doggie Dunk


Bailey is our happy girl. She doesn't have a mean bone in her body and is a very well behaved and loving dog.

Give this girl a ball or a body of water and she's in heaven. So the only thing better than one of those is BOTH of those... hence the annual dog swim at our city pool. All proceeds go towards a wonderful pup adoption group and they let any dogs swim before they drain the pool for a year. I bet there was over 100 dogs there I didn't hear a single fight. That's how happy they were.

We left the old balls at home as she's getting snappy with other dogs in her old age and we were somewhat worried about drowning. Ady enjoyed a snooze in the beco while I snapped phone pics and the boys enjoyed throwing endless balls to Bailey.


I swear she was smiling the entire time!

  1. awww that is a wonderful event! Mine are so not into the water or the fetching. Lazy butts. We take them over to our friend's house that has 3 dogs and they are so anti social and just lay someplace.

  3. So so sweet!!! They do a "Dogs day of Summer" here at the County Park and open up the entire water park to the doggies! We wanted to take Bogey so bad but with Crew being a newborn and I wasn't completely back to normal, we skipped it... Boo! So glad your Bailey could enjoy it!!

  4. I love when pools open to dogs at the end of summer! My dogs did this a few years ago, but they aren't fans of water so we stopped.

  7. That's a really cool event! Your city pool looks awesome by the way - ours is pretty nice, but I wish there was more of a little kid area than what we have.

  10. This is just the sweetest -- what a great idea to host a dog day at the pool (I've never heard of anything like it)! Bailey looks so happy!! I know pets often take the back seat when babies are born, so I think it's awesome you gave her a special day like this!
