I went to a wedding at a farm once that had a Border Collie and a nice pool. The Border Collie would practically dare you to say something about a pool, water, or diving board. That set him off and he would do several types of jumps and dives into the pool and then dog paddle among the people for awhile until he got out and waited for someone to dare him again. I must have witnessed him do it 50 times and he never got tired of it. ---

I love animals, but there are times I wish I could talk to them so I could ask them what the hell they’re doing. “Dude, you’re not sliding. If you’re just going to jump in the water, you could do that anywhere. If you’re too hot, just stay in there. And how long are you going to keep doing this?” ---

Oh, she’s sliding! Just cuz she’s standing up doesn’t mean she’s not sliding! She’s having a blast, that’s irrefutable. ---

I have two dobermans (and three other dogs). I could so see Jake doing the waterslide, and Grace not wanting to get her dainty dobie feet wet. StG ---

How does he get up the ladder? Dogs usually do not do ladders. ---

[QUOTE=Paul in Saudi] How does he get up the ladder? Dogs usually do not do ladders. [/QUOTE] It appears to be stairs leading up to the slide.
