My chi thinks he's a golden! LOL

Yesterday we took Mattie (our Golden Retriever) and Linus (our chihuahua) to the lake. Of all things, Mattie was AFRAID of the water!!!!!!!!!!! LMAO! Ronnie got the biggest kick out of this, lol. She would hunch down real low and kinda go back and forth, then the water touched her paw and she took a flying leap backwards.
As many of you already know, Mattie LOVES to play ball. It is her absolute favorite thingin the world to do. So......Ronnie threw a ball in the lake. Well....du du du du (that was supposed to be all sing songy, lol) my long coat chihuahua runs into the lake....thinking he can just run and not realizing the ground was about to drop out from under him, lol...to get the ball. Well, he swam back and kept going in over and over and over. He loves to swim! Mattie eventually went in and then it seems instinct kicked in b/c she then acted like a normal golden retriever, lol.

We went fishing some out on our dock yesterday evening. There was a massively huge cottonmouth dead right by the pontoon boat. It looks like a boat propeller hit it. But dang, it's kinda scary that they are in the canal THAT big.

Nemo is gone. :((( Ronnie thinks he must have been bit by a snake or something. (How men get this great intelligence out of a million possibilities to think they know the ONE that happened, is beyond me, LMAO!) He has brought us snakes all the time since we've moved here and he has been bitten two or three times by a snake. I just cannot believe it though. It REALLY sucks.
