No, my dog stays home. My dog is part lab part sheepdog. The sheepdog in her refuses to swim. The lab part has her crashing through water shoulder deep even when the temperature is below freezing.
She was in a canoe with me once. As I was about to leave the dock she unexpectedly leaped and landed in the canoe. Have you ever paddled with a hyperactive seventy pound dog going from side to side in a canoe? It was humorous, but not an experience I am looking to duplicate. Ed
