Scubadog Senna!

Last night we were looking after Barney for the night so we decided to take a walk with the dogs in our new surroundsing in Pirkkala.

The weather was great, sunny and warm, so the dogs were more than happy when we reached the little ducks' pond close to where our (future) house is. Both dogs jumped into the water happily (well Senna very very very happily as always:) and Senna started swimming around. Then she did something I've never seen a dog do before, she put her head completely under water! It was as if she thought she was still on land, since she was walking around, nose to the bottom looking for stuff under water! She looked hilarious, almost like a duck, only her bum and wagging tail sticking out of the water. She would surface once in a while, shaking and spluttering a lot of water all over the place and Barney would close his eyes every time she shook and then he would shake as well:) He's no too keen on the wet stuff, but is quite brave and goes in to his elbows at least. Senna finally found a nice stick under water, but when she surfaced she shook so violenty the stick went to pieces and all she was left with was the small piece in her mouth. We were laughing like crazy!

Makes you wonder if our dog is distantly related to a duck...:)
