Dad of six adorable Labrador puppies teaches them to swim

If there is water nearby, lab owners will tell you that their dogs will be in it. These four-footed water lovers are practically impossible to keep out of any pool, puddle, or pond they come across.

You’d think that because they have webbed feet, Labrador retriever puppies would be able to jump right in, but even they need to be introduced to the water for the first time. They paddle naturally, as do most dogs, but puppies may be frightened while swimming for the first time.

When this father decided it was time for his six puppies to learn to swim, he led by example by diving into the pond and encouraged his adorable little crew to follow suit.

The puppies appear frightened at first, then a couple of them get their paws wet. One courageous tiny pup proudly paddles out to his father. Dad appears to be having a good time, but it’s clear that he’s keeping a close eye on his dog and gently steering him back to land.

The pack continues to run and play in its garden wonderland after the first swimming instruction is completed. They are really fortunate dogs to live in such a lovely location. When a puppy gets lost on land, Dad is a fantastic father because he makes sure the tiny explorer doesn’t go lost.

With the first swimming lesson over, the pack goes on to run and play in their garden wonderland. They are such lucky dogs to live in such a beautiful place. Dad is a great father because even on land, when a puppy gets behind, he makes sure the little explorer doesn’t get lost.

It’s back in the water after their little land break, and this time a couple more pups join the swimming fun. They appear to be having a great time and could not be any cuter.

Soon, all of the puppies are splashing around in the water and rushing after their father. They’re having so much fun that you can’t help but want to join in. They’re having so much fun, and before long they’ll be all grown up and swimming as well as their father.
