Well, you do both look cooler. How does that swim cap hold-up in the water, JMc?
My only Springer was named Taz (actually Razmataz); great dog, but I gave him to an autistic boy with whom he had formed an amazing bond while we were working in front of their home a number of years ago back home in Montana. The lad's father asked if I'd sell Taz to him; he had never seen his Son so happy & responsive as he was playing with old Taz. I told him that I couldn't sell Taz, but I would be happy to give him to his Son as a gift. After that, I always figured that was the reason I bought Taz (it was on a whim, as I had a splendid Lab at the time.). The Lord works in mysterious ways . . .
