Dock Diving









Molly and her Boston Terrier, Mandy, had a Dock Diving Event near my house, so they came to stay with us over the weekend. I went to the show with them and took Reuben, too! We had gone swimming a few nights in the lake behind my house. Reuben really liked it, but with all his fur he could not stay afloat too well. So I bought him a life preserver made just for dogs. With that, he could swim and not drown! At the event, Mandy broke her own record and jumped 17 feet – quite a distance for a Boston Terrier! Reuben got so excited when the dogs ran and jumped, so we signed him up to let him give it a try. It is a long way down off of the dock, so Mandy got involved to help. I picked Reuben up and put him down in the water a few times and then one time he jumped – or was he pushed? We met two wonderful sisters who have a photography business, and they caught Reuben jumping! Both sisters also have Corgis that like to dock dive, too! They do great portraits and action shots! Thanks for the great shots!
