Midsummer Day

Today the Midsummer Day we spended with australian cattle dogs Greta, Aussie, Poppy and german shepherd Rexy.










We went swimming in Männiku sandpit. Cause Rexy hasn't swam yet (well he is only 5 months old) I decided to take him with us. Also it gave a good opportunity to socialise him. Also Aapo met Poppy, whom he doesn't liked much. But today they got really friendly and even played a little. So I think they just had some misunderstandments before :)









Aapo and Rexy just watched how australian cattle dogs went swimming to get the sticks. They as well tried to catch the sticks on the water but in the other hand they didn't went (want to go) swimming. Until Rexy jumped too far and noticed that his feet couldn't touch the ground he automaticly started swimming. So today Rexy learned to swim and he enjoyed it :)










Also I tried to teach Aapo to swim, but because Rexy interrupted us constantly, it just didn't work today. But Aapo didn't want to swim. He just went as far as he could while not loosing the ground under his feet. Our this summer aim is that Aapo would like to go swimming by himself ;)
