A day on the lake (or maybe just in the pond)

Today I took the boys to the pond. Dave and I went over on Thursday and gave Bama his second swimming lesson, which he (Bama) cried about for the rest of the day. Today was pretty chilly, so I decided it would be mean to throw him in. Trevor on the other hand wouldn't stay out of the water. I've heard that Labs love water and Trevor proves it to be true.

We've been playing with the Wubba toy that I got them lately. It is a Kong toy made to teach your dog to fetch ducks. I got it so they had an actual dog toy. It has been well worth the money. I need to get another one as Bama gets older.

Trevor is obsessed with fetching in the water. If he even thinks he sees something out on the water, he jumps in after it. Today we were sitting on the deck and looked out and Trevor was swimming out in the pond after nothing at all, just swimming.

I'm working on getting some video up for you to see him, but my SLOW internet connection is making it difficult. Keep checking for some great video clips. But for now, some pictures.

Trevor swims FAST! Used to, we had to hold Katie back so that Trevor had a chance, now we have to hold Trevor back so that Katie has a chance. If Katie gets to the Wubba first, Trevor swims out and takes it away from her so that he can bring it in. Big Bully.

Bama got the Wubba toy for just a second before Trevor took it away from him again.

Look at those beautiful eyes!
