Oh, and Jackson is a water freak... except for the bath. So just because a dog hates a bath doesn't mean they will hate swimming.

Jackson took right to swimming and highly enjoys it, but my dads two dogs (who don't really "enjoy" it as much) still knew how to swim naturally when we put them in the pool.

I used the lifejacket a lot last summer but now he doesn't really need it nor want it.

Another excuse to post Jax swimming pictures again, I guess...
That is funny because thats exactly how Chachi is he hates his baths but he loves the water. We have a stream and he runs through it and plays in it. We havent let him recently with the heat and his eye problems
