Today’s little adventure: water. 💙🐾
Nothing fancy… just a little blue pool from Walmart with about half an inch of water.
The goal isn’t to make them swim or even make them like it. It’s simply to let them experience something new in a safe, positive way.
Some puppies walked right in. Some needed a little encouragement. Some decided they’d rather watch for a minute first—and that’s perfectly okay.
I never force these kinds of experiences. Confidence grows when puppies are given the chance to explore at their own pace. If they’re done, we take a break and try again another day.
It’s one more tiny piece of raising puppies who are curious, resilient, and ready to take on the world. ❤️
