Doggy Swim

On Saturday we took Lexus and Kaiya to the local Doggy Paddle. This is an annual event Lexington has each year after they close the public pools. They open it up to the local community to bring their dogs and have them swim for the day. The proceeds go to the local dog parks. There were SO many dogs there! It was our first time going and I couldn't believe how many people brought their dogs. It was a great turn out.
Lexus hates the water so we knew she wouldn't go in on her own. Todd drug her in and had her swim a little. She is a good swimmer but she doesn't like it. She had more fun playing with the other dogs on land.
Kaiya was not sure what to do with all the other dogs. She got in the water a little. I think she would have liked to swim if it hadn't been so crazy. She kept trying to hide behind different people. She likes other dogs, but would rather be by people.
We didn't stay too long but we had a good time. They were both sleepy when we got home so after some baths, we had a relaxing afternoon.
