A line has formed already for the Dog Paddle
|
Volunteers help owners fill out the forms
|
Gracie waits patiently during paperwork
|
|
Puppies are already splashing!
|
We find a quiet place for our towels....
|
....then Gracie jumps in!
|
|
Gracie shows her Olympic style
|
...and emerges modestly onto the concrete
|
Gracie quickly dives in again
|
|
Always mindful of the photo opportunity!
|
Let's see what's over on this side of the pool
|
Wow! More new friends
|
|
Gracie watches the activity on the deck
|
Lots of puppies are enjoying the activity
|
Gracie is a bit shy around others
|
|
but she LOVES the water!
|
Checking to be sure her "people" are close
|
Approaching the edge
|
|
...and climbing up for a rest
|
Gracie enjoys the warm weather
|
Showing the humans how to swim
|
|
Gracie flirts with other humans
|
She crosses the pool again
|
...and watches others for a moment
|
|
Gracie starts to spend more time on land
|
...but is curious about the slide!
|
She's a bit unsure about the other dogs
|
|
and seeks solitude by the big slide
|
She loves the pirate ship slide!
|
but thinks about relaxing in the beach chair
|
|
One final lap before leaving
|
Gracie paddles the length of the pool
|
...and looks for land
|
|
After shaking off some water...
|
...Gracie says goodbye for another year.
