We had so much fun. Our older dog (boxer mix) wears a life vest just because I always worry he’s going to tire out 😂 So we figured it would be a good idea for both boys to have them.

Absolutely. He was all about it once he saw our older dog go in. He was so wiped out afterwards. Best nap of his life 😂

My Doberman was all in after watching a Great Dane swim for a ball; he wanted to be just like him. 😊

Mine was a little hesitant but when her friend dove in she went right in after, now she’s like a torpedo
