Poppy like many Labradors loves water. She doesn't think twice about jumping into any puddle or water trough that she finds. I wasn't too pleased when she jumped in this one because it's not very clean, she needed a hose down afterwards. It is also rather close to the electric fence and I was worried she would touch it as she climbed out. Don't worry I lifted it out of the way.
This old bath had been a trough for many many years. This however was Poppy's last swim in it.
Farm work is pretty up together at the moment, we can't currently go anywhere for the day and brother in law and sister in law couldn't take their holiday away. Consequently a lot of extra jobs have been done around the farm including replacing the trough. Poppy was soon able to try out the new one.
Just right on a baking hot day and the water was clean!
How funny she looks in that old water trough! They really don't care how mucky they get do they?!
ReplyDeleteShe definitely doesn't mind getting dirty but detests the hose!
DeleteThe new trough looks very tempting, especially on a hot day!
ReplyDeleteNan
I confess to dipping my feet in for a cool off. I shan't be doing that once the water gets dirtier!
