Poor Spotty, Surfing Dog

It was really hot and the kids walked home from school, so the pool seemed like a good option. Spotty loves to come and patrol while the kids are in the water. He runs around the edge barking and checking on them. What he doesn't like to do is to get in the water. The kids have been great about building a better trust relationship with him and he now reluctantly agrees to get on the float and surf around. I am very impressed. He is always happy to get out at the end.
