| Oopsie! In the pool! So, little Jimmy was visiting his cousin Dillon, shown in the truck, and having a good ole time! He loves kiddos. A few minutes later when Dillon was on his way to get the pool net to retrieve Jim's ball from the pool I say to Dillon "Don't let him follow you!" and someone says to me "Stop being so paranoid!" and I turned my head for a second to say "He's just a baby!" then....we all hear..."plop"....in goes Jimmy! He swam pretty good and was only in for abut 10 seconds before Dillon snatched Jimmy up by the head and rescued him. I almost had a heart attack! But the pictures are priceless and he was up running around 10 minutes later. The pool was almost 85 degrees and the temp outside was 92 so he was good. Check out the cuteness overload pictures. First one is of Jimmy with Dillon in the truck with my dog ChiChi looking on. The second picture is after the rescue...cute little baby boy. I can't wait for the summer so I can teach him how to swim in my own pool. ChiChi is a champ at that and, yes, I do practice safe water with my dogs. I have chicken wire all around my own pool and never leave them outside by themselves. |

| Sooooo cute! Jackson LOVES to swim and it sounds like little Jimmy may be a swimming Yorkie too! I love seeing them look like wet rats, hehe.

| I see he isn't too impressed with swimming yet. I think it's good that they get to learn about water and to swim while they are puppies so they can get used to it and not be afraid. I think my girls would grow cat claws and scream bloody murder if they were put or fell in a pool of water. I tried them with a baby pool on the hottest days, putting them in (only up to their bellies) only to have them fly out like their butts were on fire. So sad.

| Awww poor lil guy! lol Violet isnt sure of water yet! She gets a bath about every 3 days and so far isnt to thrilled with that idea! I had a foster Yorkie this summer named Bailey and she LOVED water! Anytime there were mud puddles she would find the deepest one and lay down in it! I called her a Lab in a Yorkie's body!

| You guys crack me up! Love the responses. I do hope he will be a swimmer! I guess his mom loved the water so I'm thinking he will too

| Aww poor little guy!! He is so cute! Makes me want a puppy Peanut would have probably had a heart attack if he fell in the pool!! He doesn't really like water. He loves to go on boats, if I am holding him he will tolerate the water, other than that he just wants to lay in the sun
