Swimming Lessons

Nick came over today and brought his cute little doggy Winslow. Winslow did not really care for Stella- she is sometimes too much woman for little dogs. We decided to take Stella out and teach her how to get into the pool! So I put on her green life jacket (with very handy handle) and we set out to go in the pool.

Stella with her life jacket! and Nick with a popsicle- in a house full of popsicles, one must eat popsicles.
At first Stella was a little more interested in Winslow than the pool.
Contemplating entry.
I pulled her in a few times to show her how, and she ended up jumping in by herself THREE times! Yay Stella!
Stella likes the water! It is official! It helped that I could lure her with a stick.
