Salty Dog

Hubby and I took Molly fishing with us today. Until today, I always said no to letting any of the dogs on the fishing boat. Mom's worry, you know. Eating bait, getting caught in a fish hook OUCH! But, hubby persisted today and I finally gave in. We were out for 5 hours. The fishing boat is large, she can walk around. I am so impressed with my salty dog
. She had the time of her life. She is always willing to get onto our pleasure boat, but the fishing boat has no platform. No problem. She hopped right in. She spent the whole day looking at the scenery, rocking with the boat, had her sea legs right away. (she usually sits in one of the built in sofas on the pleasure boat). She stood up front, wind blowing in her face, even climbed up onto the ledge of the boat and sat there for a while.

The only near mishap we had was when I decided to use a bobber once. The second it hit the water, she was ready to jump in after the "ball". And she nearly made it in too. :D Dad caught her in flight and drug her butt back in. I quickly pulled the "ball" in and put it away.

It always amazes me how Salty a newf can be. It's just in their blood. My Salty dog Molly :D

Oh how cool, when you describe this i can just picture her with the wind in her hair, facing into it, smelling the sea air. it would be a beautiful picture!

You know I had a horrible dream that my newf (which I don't even have yet!) swallowed a lure....and I kept trying to get it out! I was very happy when I woke up and realized it was just a dream.

Yep, she had a great time. Molly is aka our "Go Go Girl" :D She goes everywhere I go. She sits in the truck while I go into the market, the bank, the corner store. She's very attached at the hip
. She hasn't once shown the slightest concern while boating and we've been out on some pretty rough seas together. She definitely has sea legs. :D

You know Proud, I had a dream the night before we went out on the boat that I was talking on the phone at a window and when I looked out to see why a ship was blowing it's horn so much, I saw a tug boat sinking right at my window!!! I too was VERY happy to wake up and see it was just a dream!!
