Of course this was the same dog that would jump off our sea wall, run down the beach and swim out into the ocean, she’d be gone for a few hours sometimes. Beyond sight even with binoculars, always wondered what possessed her.
She never swam into a shark or fell out of the trunk and so she passed away at a very ripe for a golden 14 years sleeping in the sun on the sea wall,. May I be so lucky!

My Black Lab Sammy WANTED to ride in the bed of the truck and fought when I went to pick her up to put her in the cab however my Lab Max owned the back seat of my crew cab and got nervous when I put him in the bed.
Still - I don't think hanging on the side of the car would be good for anyone!
