Well my Yorkie is my little man. He has been my good buddy during some tough times, he sticks to me like glue and I guess I am kind of a nut about the little fella. But at any rate my neighbor is on vacation and told us to use his pool in order to help keep an eye on his house so buster and I have been learning to do the dog paddle. He takes to the water like a duck. Megan was kind enough to come over today and take some pictures of him in the pool for me.

That is awesome! Our little one is learning how to swim around the bath tub. I may have a video....

Max! Buster looks like a natural. If you don't watch him he is liable to find the pool and jump in on his own. Ali would do just that.

So he rides & swims. What's next? ;)

All I have to say is that it is a blessing you and Buster found each other!

Does he bring you tools when you work? :D

No he doesn't bring me tools but he does hang out in the garage with me. :)

Ali brings me the ball, so I figured it would be nice to teach her how to help. She thinks I need my head examined.

Hey Max,
I bet he gives you an awesome welcome when you come home!!

He is a spinner when I come home, but he is a nascar dog because he always turns to the left. :)

I've never heard of a nascar dog before, but it certainly is funny.:)

Tonight we had a fireworks display in the sky right behind our house that matched some small town's version of an Independence Day celebration. CHarley decided he was going to charge at the sky and Ali tried to hide in my shirt. This is the complete opposite of their usual personalities.

Warning this is about 45mb but a 1080P video of buster turning left.

Max! He turns left and he's handsome as all get out!
He's so quiet. Ali is too, but CHarley would have been either barking at me or flopping his ears down.

He can make a simple game last forever. :)

I'll have to do another video of buster, I found some new balls at pet smart the other day. They are tiny tennis balls and buster loves the things. :)

Are they the ones with a thick ribbon-like loop attached to them?

No they look like regular little yellow tennis balls and he loves them. Perfect fit for him to carry.
