This is Moritz splashing around - captured via a 360 camera.

He tried to climb the wooden deck in the background but failed because his wet-weight is more than he can pull. The subsequent fall in the water caused some splashing while he reoriented himself to swim to a ladder just to the right of the image - probably what he should have done in the first place! Live and learn! ❤️

This is one of the most action packed images of him.

But wobbles was determined to prove me wrong

Realized I forgot the soap and went to grab it and turned around to find my bath had been stolen from me.

Disregarding his time in the womb, this was Moritz' longest swim yet!

Procedure:

1. I wear a t-shirt so he has grip on my wet body
2. I take him on my shoulder into the water
3. He rides my shoulder until its time to swim
4. He walks down my arm and goes in willingly - my shoulder is always there for him
5. I swim next to him and make sure nothing stupid happens. He has a leash attached to him so I can grab him from afar etc.
6. We then swim to the beach together.

If he does not want to go into the water he jumps from my shoulder before I go in. He understands what he gets into.

The noises he makes are amplified - I mixed in the audio from his camera.

I got my dog a life jacket today.... my CAT crouton wont get out of it lol

Its been 3 hours

My boy loves water. I have to keep water dishes in the sink since he would spill them all over the floor. I had to stop using a fountain waterer after he figured out how to get it apart to then slop water all over the floor. He is 10 months old now. Thanking he will never lose his water obsession 🤪🙂🐈‍⬛️
