Dogs often learn how to do things from closely observing the humans around them. They watch us very carefully to see what we do, what we say. This Boxer puppy takes his observation skills and learns how to have fun in the water by watching the kids in the pool.
The kids are all in the water first, and when the Boxer sees them swimming around and playing he decides to dive in and join them.
He paddles for a few seconds but instead of swimming around he stands up in the pool just like the kids. He then takes a close look at what the kids are doing. The girl is splashing the water with her arms in front of him and soon the other kids do too, splashing each other. That’s when this smart puppy learns how to do it too!
Puppy and humans then all splash together – what fun!
