andyrose 8 Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 my poodle x loves it, and at 10 months he probably retrieves better from water than land. He's just getting the hang of keeping paddling when picking up the dummy, before he'd stop paddling and grab the dummy just before vanishing under. A bit worrying at first lol Quote Link to post
