Labrador - Pointer Mix - Bailey

I can swim daddy !!
Bailey (lab/pointer mix) was found wandering all alone when he was a 7 week old puppy. His mom and sibling were found the day before. They were all taken to Caring for Creatures Animal Sanctuary in Palmyra, VA.
We discovered him on Petfinder.com and I was in the car for the 3 hour drive to go meet him the next morning. We could not resist that cute face and shiny black coat !!!

Bailey loved to go to the ocean and jump all over like he was a rabbit in the water. So, one day we decided to take him over to a friend's house with an outside pool.
He was a bit timid once we got him in the pool since he could not touch the bottom. We went ahead and gave him the raft to sit on...and he did really well, even got all nice and comfortable.
You can barely see it but his back right paw went through the raft and eventually so did his other leg...but he kept on smiling a way like there was nothing wrong.
So then we just left him in there since he was having so much fun...but the raft had a few holes in it...but still worked with a human in it afterwards. We had a fun day overall and Bailey got some swimming and sun from that day...a very happy camper.
