Taking flight for the First Time!

Nope, Not birds. My pup. I decided to take him to the public docks, to see what he would do with a runway and launch pad. First attempt ended with him slamming on the brakes and barking at the bumper.

By the 5th time, he was hitting the dock full speed and going airborne. His muscular, large build isn't stopping him from getting some serious distance off a dock that is only a 2 feet out of the water. He looks like a linebacker, flying over the line to get the QB. Geese in a field or crips don't stand a chance.

Moose did that same thing Don. It took him a few times before he got the hint. Now he just Flys off.

Yup, my pup did the same thing, she wasn't sure about our dock the first few times. Wasn't long and even having a boat parked on the end of the dock wouldn't stop her, she'd one hop it and launch off the gunwales, was pretty comical to watch.

My dummy's first experience with water was a pool. He ran into it like he thought it was regular ground. Couldn't keep him out after that.

I think this is where something clever about tapatalk should go.
