A non-swimming Lab??
Still, if he fell in for some reason you should have a DOB plan in place to
get him back on board.

I can drag his butt back on board but it wouldn't be easy. I am not
really sure how he would fall overboard tho,. He is not a "stand on
the rail" kinda guy.

Are you saying he *can't* swim or just doesn't like it. My pointer doesn't like
being in the water, but she can swim. She was actually afraid of the little
ripples splashing on the shore at Lake Anna here in VA. She finally got to where
she'd go in up to about her stomach to retrieve a ball. Couldn't get her to
voluntarily go any deeper.

I'll probably take her out on the boat this weekend just to see how she does on
the boat. Hopefully, she won't be as afraid of the boat as she is the car.
