Biggie's 1st time swimming! - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

thanks for the compliments everyone... biggie's loving them

to answer some questions:

-Biggie seemed to like the water. I was taking the pictures on the shore and my boyfriend was calling him out into the water and he paddled right out to him! The water was a little cold but he got used to it. He didn't swim for too long but he did dry off pretty quickly with the help of the sun.

-We got his lifejacket @ petsmart. It was the last XS so we were lucky to get it. It looks a bit big BUT it fits him pretty well. I also liked that I could hook his leash on it so he wouldn't swim away from us. It was $19.00 and I tried to find it on the website but they didn't have it?

Oh My! He did have fun! He looks so adorable in that life jacket too! I think they like the water cold. At least hefner had not problem this weekend and the lake we were at was C-O-L-D!!!

Great pics, Lexi likes to swim with her life jacket on too. Without her life jacket she acts like she is scared.

^^ that's exactly how biggie was! w/o a life vest he would paddle frantically. it seems like he feels more comfortable in the water with a vest.

That's a very cute picture. Josie would be too scared. Biggie is a very brave yorkie.
