| Hot Rod the Water Dog! We back from vacation - 11 days days on the water! We had a wonderful time and Hot Rod did amazingly well. I am so proud of him, he did so well on the boat and in the water. He even jumped in on his own 3 times! We have been doing this trip for 12 years with as many as 25 other boats. It is such a good time! arriving into Baltimore Harbor, Capt Hot Rod, Just checking things out, Just hanging out,

| Hot Rod certainly looks like he was born to be on the water. He looks so comfortable sitting there. Glad you had a great time. |

| I looked at your pictures and posted without reading what you had to say. Boy your post just took me way back in my life... Thinking about my past life on the water. I lived the water life as a child...taking vacations in the boat...cruising to nearby islands...down to Florida...staying on the boat...in motels on the waters edge, etc. It's the best life there is. When I die, I want to come back as your dog! Enjoy life sweetie.

| Thanks, he has definitely gotten very comfortable with being in the water. We put him in with just dunking him, a lot, to cool him off and he seemed to realize that it felt good and that helped with him not being so afraid to go in. We had a great time!

| We've been slowly getting him used to the water with weekend trips. We were worried about this big trip but he did so well. I would get a life jacket and a child's pool and start putting it on so they can get comfortable with it on...Hot Rod was not a happy camper when we first starting putting it on him. We started back in Feb. Good luck. I would love to have a pool!

| We are so glad that he has gotten used to the boat and water as we spend quite a bit of time on it. We were unsure of how he was going to do. The very first weekend was a little hard but he definitely has gotten his sea legs. The rocking motion doesn't even phase him at all!
