Default I want to take my dog boating...

Dachshunds can swim, yes, if they walk into the water from the shore.
Leaping in...nope... I dove deep below the dog, as my Mom leapt in
nearby.
It was funny, watching the dog corkscrew backwards down into the
depths, paddling like mad. I shot back up with the dog and he was
none the worse the wear from the experience, although he learned from
that day to ...wait for the boat to stop. Smarter than some people in
that area.

We had 3 different dogs on numerous trips and never had motion-sick
dogs... But that dachshund road in the car, the boat, and Dad's
Beechcraft Bonanza too.


good story....
