We've come to realize that Nolan is a complete water dog! It really doesn't matter if it's a wading pool or the bathtub (or the dog dish or the toilet for that matter) he loves to play in the water. I've turned around and found him fully clothed in the wading pool outside after it rains and watched him struggle to climb into the tub by himself, only to be disappointed that apparently it isn't always full of water. And, yes, the dog dish is a favorite play toy whenever he thinks he can get away with it, as is the toilet if we forget to close the doors. It's a good thing it's summer! There are lots of opportunities to get wet in the next few months.
