  • I took my daughter and her friends (and the B of course) down to Utah lake. The water was soo warm! Still, I'd never seen a B that liked water - but after my daughter pulled away from the shore, there she went into the water to try to get to them. So later I took her out on the boat with my daughter holding on to her and she loved it! The next week we went camping and as I pulled away from the shore in the canoe, Samantha started wading into the water (this was a mountain lake at 9000ft - so the water was a bit cold!), then started swimming towards the canoe. She got out about 6' from shore and decided that this swimming stuff was not for her - she turned around and swam back. Here's a picture of her standing in the lake.

    Hi @Vesna, it’s interesting you say that about the spay. Our tri-color actually just got spayed this week and her coat shed before that. I noticed small amount of black hair growing in where she shed, hopefully it grows back. What phase is your tri-color at? Did this just happen?

    Ah ok cool thanks, I had something like that when Safi was smaller and it was the most successful for sure. She outgrew it quite quickly though

    I can't listen to that, it would wake my girl up and well... I'm not into a "sing along" just now. ;) I will say that many canines howl and yodel and bay (at the moon, whenever a fire truck passes, etc.). I'm not certain that any one breed is distinctive enough to have a sound all their own, but many a proud owner would probably assert so.
