Crazy Mad Dogs...

Honestly, how crazy are my dogs...
The weather here is well below freezing. But still, when they find open water they will jump in:eek:
They won't go on to the ice and then jumo into deep water, don't worry;) And I won't let them of leash if I don't trust them to stay clear of the dangerous places.
Today we went for a walk in the woods and we walked beside this small stream that wasn't frozen. Jinx just jumped in and had great fun running back and forth through the shallow water.
We had to cut our walk short because the fur on her belly and legs was frozen.:rolleyes: And was she cold??? No way! She had the best time ever, just being a little anoyed with her frozen fur. But that didn't keep her from jumping straight back in, when I wasn't paying attention.
Cooper didn't go in this time, but he did yesterdag and his fur was making a tinkling sound when he walked!!
Fortunately both my dogs have a very, very thick undercoat, so the water doesn't touch their skin, but still! You would think they were smart enough not to go into water, when it freezes...
For the next week or so, I will try to steer clear of any water:rolleyes:
Cooper's frozen fur...
