By now you probably know that hanging out at the lake is one of my favorite things to do in the summer. I love it so much that whenever I can I like to bring my dog friends to the lake with me too. You might remember a few summers back when I introduced my gal pal Shilah to the lake when she was just 1 year old.
Well it seems my gal pals keep getting younger and younger (*wink*), and this time I brought along my new friend Maya the rescue pup to the lake.
It was a bit more of an overcast type of day, and I was a bit worried we might get rained on, but you know what…..when you go to the lake you gotta expect to get wet!
This time I decided to rent a double kayak with my mom and dad. Since the water was a little cooler I didn’t feel like getting as wet so a kayak seemed to be the way to go.
Maya started out on the kayak too so that she could get her sea legs.
And it didn’t take long for her to take the obligatory accidental lake plunge. Don’t worry Maya, we’ve all been there!
But Maya didn’t let a little dip in the lake discourage her, she hopped right back on and even tried her paw on the paddleboard too.
She even got brave enough to take a purposeful plunge later on in the day (which my camera crew totally missed!)
And incase you’re wondering, life guard Ammo was on duty the whole time and I kept a watchful eye on my young puppy friend.
Needless to say I was very glad she figured out the whole swimming thing on her own, because I was much too comfortable to perform any daring rescues!
I’m pretty sure it’s safe to say that this won’t be Maya’s last time on the lake.
After all, how could you not come back with a view like this!
