A REAL SWIMMER :)

We went to some lakes an hour driving from us yesterday. It is so warm outside, well above 30 degrees, so we thought it would be a good idea to cool down with a swim. It's not the best temperature for a furry dog either, but then - the water temperature is perfect, probably around 25! After some walking (and a little bit of playing with other dogs for Maja), we found a small opening down to the water, with a wonderful sandy bottom.

Maja was the first one in (!), immediately swimming for a stick that we threw not far out. But then - Jurgita swan out quite far, and when Maja saw that, she threw herself into the water: Destination Mummy :) It was really quite a far swim - reached mummy, then turned around, met me halfway to the shore, then saw some ducks to the right that she immediately set sail for..

God, she was fast!! And the rest of the time she spent swimming obviously for fun: swimming out to meet me or Jurgita, hunting ducks, catching sticks or bubbles, and just totally enjoying. It's now final: our dog is a born swimmer :)

The goal that we set ourself for the summer is accomplished!
With style!!
