waiting for a stick

He is waiting for the kids to throw a stick into the pond for him , he will do anything for a stick, well except swim to get it, he will paddle as far as his shoulders, do dogs have shoulders ?

I took this on a dog walk this afternoon, its been a busy day, so much to do on the allotment , lots of potting on and planting. plus the house to tidy, washing to do, dinner to cook, dog to walk, kids to bath, ironing to do. Sunday, day of rest ? my arse.
