Old Husky gets His First Swim and Loves it!

[@wretchedmess]

Watching on September 1, 2024, 9:19 pm, remembering Sherpa, and supporting Jamie. I think that all the exercise and hydro and daily walks really contributed to Sherpy having as long a life as he did. Sherpy enjoyed his magnificent life, and he and Jamie made the most out of his too brief time. Rest In Peace sweet Sherpa- watch over Jamie until you two are reunited at the Rainbow Bridge. 🌈🌈🌈

[@Farrah300]

@wretchedmess I also think Jamie taking Sherpy on all of those adventures contributed to his having the long, healthy life he had.

Not quite his first swim if you consider Sherpagator! But 1st time at hydrotherapy, oh you took the words out of my mouth 0.53, "I like water?" He's wearing the vest and still happy! Not like with a harness! He looks a little befuddled but even more adorable in the pool. What a lovely lady, a cute gorgeous pup, and you hoodad just took the words out of my mouth again! 2.07, with the "Aww, look at him", with all of the heartfelt emotion of a proud Dad! Overwhelmed with love for him so dont try and deny him! I knoe that tone from seeing many dads giving newborns their first bath...or simply seeing them! And I dont know why, but whenever a dog shakes it's floof/ or shortfur), it always makes me giggle. Even the sound! But yes, I was going to write, gorgeius day, gorgeous place to be and a gorgeous dog! I spose I better include you too. And definitely, Sarah! Sherp did so well, you could see how hard he was concentrating on treading water, and I am pretty sure anyone watching has a melting heart with just how adorable he looked. And he swims better than I ever did! Almost got orange ribbon at school, but my dive was a little off! Of course, I was Sherpie's age in hooman years- eleven! Well done Sherpa, for being so good, and cute, and actually doing the hard work and looking very graceful! I need to find a pool somewhere, as the local physio part had to be closed! Can you imagine Key and Sherp, both going for hydro at the same time? Double cuteness! Definitely, getting even more love, and hugs, to all of you, but extra kisses for Sherpa! 🥰😍😍😘😘😘😘😘😘💙💛💙💙💙✋👊👊🦇✋🐾❣

Next visit to the balcony, you have to put a biscuit up there, so he can jump up on his hindlegs for it, like he does when you go to coffee carts or ice cream trucks! Although the corgies may not be happy, sharring the limelight...or the meower from the nursery rhyme. Will you be teaching him the royal wave too? Xxx
