More: Race has been a serious swimmer since he was a puppy. He gets excited whenever he’s near any body of water. Even catches waves in the Atlantic. His favorite place to swim is in this kettle pond in Wellfleet MA. He swims for an hour or more at a time, paddling around, “attacking “ lily pads (there’s one stuck on him in this photo). He has a little arthritis in his back legs but the swims do him good. Happy dog!
