Dexter Takes Charge and Swimming

Dexter here! Due to the condition that he left the dog cave in, Mango has been banned from the pooter for a few days, so all you doggies that won Mango Minster prizes will have to wait until this weekend for him to get his act together. That's fine with me, because I, Dexter can now blog at will (about time).

First, I need every doggie, kittie, hammie, and human to visit our oldest blogging pal and mentor, Bogart. His dad has very bad sickies and needs all the good zen available.

My good pal, Kylie, told me about a doggie swim club called Aquadog, located in Waltham, MA that I just had to try.

They have a nice indoor pool, perfect for a winter swim. There is a nice lady dressed like a seal who goes swimming with you and tosses balls and whatnot. At first she held on to me, but I quickly got the hang of it.
I was particularly smitten with the bubbles that blew out of the sides.

Check it out! What a great retriever, huh? She even turned the jets on full blast and made it harder to swim, but I was up for it.

I didn't want to rest, but the seal lady made me...
I didn't much care for the blow dry afterwards. I mean, I was finally wet for the first time since our pool closed down.


Momma thinks that I was dozing with my head up on the way home, but I was just winking.

Even when I got home, I was still full of beans and ready for some stuffie action with the Relentlessly Huges.
Who seemed precoccupied with my butt (no, I did not fart in the pool, but with all those bubbles who would have noticed).
I made a movie of my swimming prowess. I hope we go back again soon!


After supper I went to bed even though I wasn't really tired, I mean it! Not tired at all... not the least bit sleepy... not... Zzzzzzz...
Dexter done!
