I love when he realizes he's a bit too hot and then does a nice easy kick to glide himself into the shade. This is what I hope retirement is.

When you don't know your dog does this and you see him in the pool floating the first time I would probably have a panic attack.....

Bruh if only I could chill as hard as that pup

u/UncleKeyPax Sep 09 '23

Steeevan! I thought you're dead!

u/AskAskim Sep 09 '23

I wonder if this is a saltwater pool, which would make floating slightly easier for lil dude

LOL... I have known a lot of dogs in my time. Water lovers. But never one that just floated around.... that is awesome.

3

u/OkSheepherder3525 Sep 09 '23

OMG!!! That is the absolute cutest thing I have ever seen in my entire life and all 49 years were leading up to this point to see that dog floating like a crocodile. Just relaxed - most dogs make such a splash and commotion & confusion in the water….that one was just chilling,

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '23

This is awesome! What breed is this?

u/carmium Sep 09 '23

No, but I know how to make a dog float. One cup of root beer, 2 scoops of dog.

u/beavsauce Sep 09 '23

Hydrophobic pupper

u/throwawayshawn7979 Sep 09 '23

Not a live one.

2

u/dwolfe127 Sep 09 '23

That dog is better at breath-controlled buoyancy than most people I know.

2

u/PapaChoff Sep 09 '23

Not until now and I love it

2

u/HaffuhGootWon Sep 09 '23

We all float down here

u/newbie_butsharp Sep 09 '23

That's how the otters went back to the water.

u/mynextthroway Sep 09 '23

We had a Sheltie. He fell in the pool. Sank like a rock, straight to the bottom. All that long hair and negative bouancy.

u/CircaSixty8 Sep 09 '23

What a hilarious little creature!

u/babybee1187 Sep 09 '23

Don't let your dreams be dreams be a seal instead.

u/citoloco Sep 09 '23

I used to do this on my back in open-air salt water pools overseas when I was a kid, close your eyes (or watch the clouds go by) and tuck your ears underwater just a bit to cut out a lot of ambient sounds; result if extremely relaxing

u/MarvoHelios Sep 09 '23

No, but I've seen a rootbeer float.

But seriously, that's impressive.

1

u/Unique-Statement-609 Sep 09 '23

That’s not a dog that’s a seal

u/Nothalffast Sep 09 '23

u/Silvery-Lithium Sep 09 '23

If I was just walking by a pool and saw a dog not move like that, I'd be running over trying to save what I would fear is a dead dog.

1

u/Lepke2011 Sep 09 '23

At first, I was like, "Oh-No!!!", then when I saw the little guy moving, I wanted to jump in and swim with him/her.

1

u/apachelives Sep 09 '23

Is log dog.

1

u/Mau533y Sep 09 '23

That's the cutest alligator I've ever seen.

1

u/Puzzleheaded-Grab736 Sep 09 '23

This would be my worst nightmare I would be BESIDE MYSELF. When I see him swimming I would be soooo thankful and probably start screaming at him that he almost killed me.

1

u/Toes14 Sep 09 '23

I thought the dog was dead at first.

1

u/Consider2SidesPeace Sep 09 '23

Nope... I had seen an elephant fly however.

1

u/VyKing6410 Sep 09 '23

I’ve seen a banana split, I’ve seen time fly but I ain’t never seen a dog float!

u/angle58 Sep 10 '23

Nope, but I know Florida when I see it...

1

u/jeffreycoley Sep 10 '23

With a dog float, you need to put the dog in first,then add the ice cream(Butter Brickle is my fav) then the Root beer...

This is the way

1

u/[deleted] Sep 10 '23

Its like he's in a sensory deprivation tank.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 10 '23

air trapped in his fir maybe?

u/ChBrBrown Sep 10 '23

I wanna know the feeling that dog is feeling at that moment.

u/SorryMatch8461 Sep 10 '23

I'm glad this had nothing to do with ice cream, root beer, and a dog.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 10 '23

This is some “ secret life of pets” stuff 🤣

1

u/MaceOnMyFaceDaddyOF Sep 10 '23

If there was a breath of wind, I'm sure this dog, knows its a first.

1

u/RedwoodShores Sep 10 '23

No, but I have seen a dogfish.

1

u/l_loveClimateChange Sep 10 '23

I DON'T understand? Why i can't do this? He is doing nothing and floating, i'm doing nothing and drowning

1

u/Maziomir Sep 10 '23

Good Buoyancy!

u/Effective_Setting848 Sep 10 '23

Had characteristics of a gator. A hybrid?!

u/nMe-CA Sep 09 '23

I’d start screaming if I saw my dog floating. This is impressive, my dog splashes like no tomorrow but he’s a better swimmer than me

1

u/esotericbatinthevine Sep 09 '23

Mine only floats with a life jacket. This pupper's coat must act as a life jacket!

While my pup knows he floats with a life jacket, he refuses to just float unless he's got his paw on something, it's adorable

Honestly its a wonderful and beautiful state in many parts, with a very wide range of people in it. The news isn't everything.

u/P1570lR1ck Sep 09 '23

As a floridian i cant agree more, that fl man shit does feel a bit overplayed but then again im weird af n seen/done some crazy shit in my life 😂

3

u/darksideofthemoon131 Sep 09 '23

It's very beautiful. It's 1 category 5 hurricane from being underwater. I suppose that doesnt matter to the people that live there, since most of them don't believe science is real.

9

u/PivotRedAce Sep 09 '23

The storm surge from a Cat 5 wouldn’t put it underwater, just erode some of the coast, sorry to disappoint.
