Bearded Collie Swimming


This beautiful photo was taken one day when we took the dogs for a swim in the lagune in Hermanus, South Africa. My Bearded Collie, Ami, just loves the water. She never gets enough! Of course it is not so easy afterwards to get her clean from all the salt and sand (as all Bearded Collie owners would probably know). Now that she is older and I am not showing her anymore, I keep the hair short in summer - really makes it a lot easier for me to groom her and keep her clean. It is better for her also - not so warm and I let her swim more often.

  1. What a beautiful photo. It must have been lovely out there! My dogs love to swim. I think it's really good exercise for them, although they get pretty smelly afterwards...
