Oh my gosh. We "four" springers have been having the time of our lives. This past Saturday, we had a big swimmin hole bash. Two of Nit's pups from previous litters stopped by with their Springer families. An awesome time was had by all. At one point, we had a total of 6 Springers, and 15 humans hanging out around the pool.
Nittany, Tilley, Samantha (Sammi), Oliver (Olli), Zibby, and of course me The General (Boiler) were taking turns jumping in the pool. Nittany loves to retrieve. Tilley is a real lady, and wades in ever so slowly down the steps, but in her defense she is expecting the middle of October. Sammi is too little to really jump in, so Master Mom lifts her in, and let's her swim to the steps. Olli and Zibby were guests, so they were a little hesitant at first, but did take a few dips with a lot of coaxing. Me on the other hand, I can jump in and swim to the steps all day long. One right after the other. I know it won't be long before the swimmin hole is covered for the long cold days of winter.
Last night we really got a surprise. Mom and Dad took us to this secret place where we had never been before. We rode in the back of the pickup with much anticipation. We all knew something was up when we didn't turn towards the fields, but instead headed out to the main road. It seemed like it took forever, but Master Dad finally rolled the truck to a stop. I don't remember when I've seen a more beautiful place. As soon as the back tailgate dropped to free us, we were off like a shot. You see, it was a wooded area with a river stream running right through it. Even little Sammi was able to swim the current. We frolicked and swam and explored. I could tell the Masters were really getting a kick out of watching all of us enjoy ourselves so much. Before long, we were loaded up for the ride home, and a nice relaxing evening just hanging out and drying off. It's a dog's life for sure!
