Not mine. He will get to the edge of the pond and stop just inches away but never go in. Coaxing does not work and I don't want to force him in if he is that afraid of the water. He's 11 and a great dog otherwise so at this point in his (our) lives it just doesn't matter. He will walk out on the dock and ride on the pontoon boats but no swimming.

At 85 pounds with a chest like a 55 gallon drum maybe he just can't float. I don't hunt waterfowl so never needed him to get wet.


Mistakes are proof that you are trying.
