I really wanted to see him get out of the water and stand next to you and shake off. That’s how you know a dog really loves you.

He looks too busy cooling off! Just imagine the heat under that mop.

How long will it take to dry?

55

u/ummusername 25d ago

Hours, if you’re lucky, but likely more than a day for all that to truly dry. Expect damp sponge smells.

I was anxiously watching, I kept expecting his coat to get saturated and sink! So glad he's buoyant! 🫣 Lol

Not to worry, he’s an excellent swimmer!

How do you brush those doggos, seriously??

25

u/ummusername 25d ago

You don’t.

u/RottenWon 25d ago

Those are strong dogs. Dragging the cords through the water isn't easy. Never seen one swim before.

Natural dreads

u/ummusername 25d ago

Yes! They have a very neat curl pattern.

u/atgmailcom 25d ago

I looked it up it’s to protect them as they protect sheep and to help them look like sheep

Didn't know all that fur could act as a floatation device. TIL

There's some confused fish in that pond going "Wtf was that?" 🤣🤣🤣

u/jspikeball123 25d ago

What the heck half of him is still dry!

u/ummusername 25d ago

It takes a while for them to get fully saturated.

Selkie dog.

u/ndaft7 24d ago

u/ummusername 24d ago

Such sweet relief

u/peanutgallery_31 24d ago

Imagine discovering life on another planet and this is the first creature encountered!

u/ummusername 24d ago

Seems like a great fund. Companion and blanket all in one!

u/Kamwolf33 21d ago

Dang, gonna have to ring her out when you're done.

u/80sfortheladies 23d ago

Breed feels horribly cruel to the dog imo. 🤷🏿‍♂️

u/ummusername 22d ago

Why? It is a working dog breed meant to protect sheep. They use their coat to stay warm in winds and winter and blend in with the flock. It’s just a tight curl pattern that naturally dreads, plenty of humans have that hair texture.
