_JAS5854-WEB-Boucle-swimming-2

…early this morning Boucle and I headed out to the Lake for swimming lesson # 2……..

…it went very well…..
…at first, he was reluctant to go past his underside….
…then I gently held his underside and coaxed him further …….
…then the same thing with a stick dropped a few feet in front of us……..

…and he did it!

…sweetie-pie jumped, lifting his back feet off the ground, to get the stick……
…paddled with all his feet to do a turn……
…paddled with all his feet back…..
…and was safely back on the ground……..

all the while I was at his side, making sure he did not sink…..
..and watching to make sure that all feet were paddling….

so we did this over and over……
and each time he paddled to the stick and back…..
with me by his side…..

Its official…..Boucle can now swim.  🙂

And a happy poodle he is…..
