I actually have pool-related questions, but to be honest I really just want to show off my new pup. Here's Jade as we drive away from the rescue shelter last Friday, which was her 10-month birthday. She looks sad in the pic, but IRL her personality is goofy, charming and happy.
This one captures her better:
She doesn't know what to do with the pool. She's taken a few sips from it, and dipped her paw in once (what I'd pay to have a video of that...!)
This wkd I'm going to take her to a beach to see how she does with swimming. Assuming she likes it and can do it, I want to try her in the pool. Any advice or concerns? I haven't added borates to the water. It's plaster and her nails are rounded anyway. My sand filter is generally oversized for the pool so I think hair won't be a problem.
Any other considerations, aside of course from how beautiful my crazy girl is?
