Why did it take me this long to buy a pool?

[Laurelin]

She loves it! (Of course my goal was to get both dogs in it but that didn't work out so well...)

For me?

Not a very graceful exit

Moved to the shade because it was HOT

Yeah you're not getting me any closer

Our first attempt at picking up a cookie from the bottom. Mia could not figure out that you're supposed to hold your breath under water....

Help? I can't breathe under there!

Blurry but so happy doing donuts in the pool

If I held it for her under the water, she did better

[Kaydee]

Such cutesy pictures!!!! I bet that water felt soooo gooood!!!!!

Next year I am so getting a pool, nobody was at the dog park today so I climbed in their pool with Pookins...s'nice

 

[FG167]

I LOVE the bubble pics!!!!

 

[Laurelin]

I was laughing at her ridiculous bubble blowing so hard. She's so goofy.

 

[Linds]

I was so happy we went out and got a kiddy pool early this summer before this heat wave hit or we wouldn't have been able to find one.

Love the pictures! Mia makes me laugh with her enthusiasm!

 

[yoko]

Love your pics! Yoshi is super jealous of the pool.

 

[Renee750il]

Both my grrrls blow bubbles -- I'm guessing it keeps them from getting water up their snoots. Somehow I suspect Mia figured that out pretty quickly, lol!

 

[Gypsydals]

Too cute. Glad Mia is enjoying the pool. Ivan blows bubbles as well, just for fun.

 

[swabby]

They last real well, I think mine is 5 years old, and as you can see, it gets its fair share of use...besides the dogs:

IF Mia likes ice cubes, it is fun to toss them in there.

 

[JacksonsMom]

Go Mia! Wasn't she not a big fan of your dads pool? Looks like she enjoyed this!

 

[Laurelin]

She likes the pool as long as she can do this and not swim:

She and I float in there all the time. She likes wading too but just is not much of a fan of swimming. She jumped in once then decided never again. lol
