My dog doesn’t like water. Even the mention of the word bath is enough to get him to run and hide and makes bath times extra difficult than it should be. However, some dogs can’t get enough of water. Some are even great at swimming.
A dog named Ringo is one such dog who can’t get enough of water. He loves to swim, and the mere mention of the word pond is enough to excite him thinking that he’s going swimming with his family.
However, Ringo didn’t really start to love swimming immediately. His family found that he’s a very energetic dog and can’t seem to expel his energy even when they regularly take him out for walks. They also play with him a lot.
Ringo’s family knows that they give him more than adequate exercise, but his energy level is so high that Ringo doesn’t seem to get tired even when his family is already exhausted from exercising him.
One day, Ringo’s family decided to go to the nearby pond for a swim. They were out in the middle of the pond when Ringo started swimming after them. It was at this time that Ringo discovered swimming, and he absolutely loved it.
After that day, Ringo can’t get enough of water and swimming. He would even start playing with water stored in a plastic basin.
After a while, not only did Ringo get in the water and swim, but he would have a running start to dive in the pond. His family figured out that this was the only way for them to get Ringo to expel his energy.
If Ringo’s family have a couple of hours free, they make it a point to take Ringo and the other dogs out to the pond to go swimming. The only drawback is they can never mention the word pond or swim out loud in front of Ringo again. Otherwise, they’ll get an overexcited dog itching for a swim. Here’s a video of Ringo’s performing his favorite past time with his family.
