Cirrus swam for the first time last week. He did great. We spent a week a Lake Shasta and he swam every day. He had trouble figuring how to get back in the water from the shore and back in the boat from the water. Nimbus was a great role model.
This was just last week. He is about 14 months old. Nimbus was probably about the same first time at the lake, I am not sure about eleven weeks. Perhaps it will be even easier. Less time to develop anxiety about stuff. Nothing other than a kiddie pool until now.
We're also taking our puppy up to the lake this weekend. She will be 16 weeks old and it will be her first official swim. Do you put cotton balls in their ears?
