As a child, I had a dog that loved the water - I taught him to climb in the water on an inflatable mattress (we had a quality military one made of very strong material at home) and I flipped him off the mattress into the water several times as a joke. My dog ​​learned this too and I can say that I had much more fun with him in the water than with my human friends. I still laugh about it to this day - I fought with the dog in the water over the air mattress and it was very fun. I had no chance - he always won - he was a Newfoundland dog that was breed to rescue people in the water. 😂
