After breakfast, yesterday, Izaak went immediately into the pool.
Now, Rottie's especially are supposed to take it easy after 'dining'.
I didn't want him to swim around and exert himself and bloat.
They can actually die as a result.

So, here we have him sitting on a love seat, umbrella placed just so, while I
make him 'stay'. It was over 100 degrees even this early. I couldn't make
him get out of the pool and take the big wet critter in the house...
so this was our comprimise :))

He does look a bit forlorn while deferring his fun.
