I was reading through the July 2006 Issue of Dog Fancy. I noted that they had part of the issue dedicated to Water Fun with your dogs. I was hoping to see some Newfies (No such Luck ). What I did see kind of annoyed me though. On page 5 was a blurp by Editor Susan Chaney. The Section is titled: "Water Fun - and a Warning." in the lead in to water fun she states; "Even a dog who loves to swim runs the risk of exhaustion and possible drowning, so keep her on a leash and under your watchful eye at all times." I'm hoping she forgot to put something in there. I find it hard to believe she actually was telling peaders to let their dogs swim with a leash on!? I can understand the keeping a watch on your dog, but keep a leash on it while it's swimming? I wrote her an email, we'll see what she says.
