More: Toby always loved to play in lakes. As soon as he was off leash, he would run straight to the water to splash and wait for me to catch up. His love of water was only surpassed by his love to retrieve, and this orange bumper was one of his favorites. I had to say goodbye to this sweet, exuberant Labrador in the fall of 2020 but this is one of my favorite photos of him with two of his most favorite things.
