POOL ANYONE?

Well, Heather said that the Silkies really needed to have a pool, not a tub, to play in during this heat wave. They had one, but it finally bit the dust last year. So off I went to Home Hardware this afternoon to see if I could find one that would fit in my car. Fifteen bucks later, new pool stuffed in the back seat, and we're off back home to fill it up with water. Add two balls, and voilĂ ! Happy Silkies cooling off with some pool sports.

'way to go, Abby! Loved that paw stretch towards the end...

I'm amazed at how silent you three are when playing...if you put three humans in a pool with a ball then there would be alot of chatting, exclamations, and splashes!You are the daintiest water-play dogs ever!

Save me a spot pool-side for next summer, ok?

p.s. What about a bigger pool for the humans? Or do they prefer to run about under lawn sprinklers to keep cool?
