This swimming thing with the water happened a few days ago... the dog handlers of K9Kulture asked Mummy if she wants me to try swimming. Mummy was gracious enough to say "go ahead and try but Benny is a terrible swimmer and water averse". Thanks mum, that was just a lame excuse. Haven't you read my entry on swimming and showers??? http://bennyxobile.blogspot.com/2007/05/experience-after-fun-day.html

Here I am sitting next to a nice handler and there's another corgi called Rocky that's on the ground playing chase the small white maltese!!!
And here we are just roaming around...
Later that afternoon I heard someone talking about SWIMMING!!! Mummy came around again and this time I think she gave permission for them to take me swimming. WHAT?!?!?! So here I am running around the pool side trying not to get caught.
But here, Aunty Cheryl the top-dog-handler managed to catch me and haul me toward the pool...AaaaaaaaaahH! (Notice the Goldens having a pawsome time in the pool.)
Here's pictures of me "enjoying" my swim at the indoor pool. See my bug eyes?
Ok, so after a while it wasn't so bad cos its cooling but its too tiring and water in my ears is something I dread. I need to rest now...
Mummy took me back to the store after the nice people there rinsed me off and dried me. I was so concussed that I barely stayed awake. My eyes closed and I slept like a stone all through the night as well. Didn't even wake up to drink or pee or crap.
But, that's a dog's life! =D
Teehee!!!

I don't blame you for not wanting to swim in the pool either - a dog's gotta be able to feel the bottom in the water hey!!
I loved the photos of you curled up in your basket - you look so sweet snoozing away.
River
You and I could be brothers Benny! I hate showers and water too! U totally froze up there in the pool eh? needed a pretty hooman to hold ur paws.. or is that the newest tactic to hook a gal? heeheehee..
I wanna try swimming too but Mumsy is too busy for me.. Sigh...
Benny- you mean all those who swam were BOYS? Where are the canine girls??
Aunty L.
ps you looked so cute in your bed....
(BARN2: I dont mind swimming in your stead...just tell me when...)
May I know where is the place? Is the swimming pool open to public? Thanks.
Hi everyone!!!!
Thanks for all the "you look so cute sleeping" comments. When I'm sleeping, I'm in my happy place. =)
Not sure when I'm going into the pool next. Mummy says only once a week of pool activity for me. I have to watch my back - we longbodied dogs need to be careful.
This place is in K9Kampus. Its along Turf Club Road. You can find the map at our website: www.pawsitivesensations.com
That particular pool is for dayboarders at K9kulture, but there's an outdoor pool...almost ready but dunno which days its going to be open to the public yet.
Wee!!! My working life is great!
Wow Benny, you are sooo busy lately. How do you find time to rest and relax? :)
