Puppy Pool

When I was out at Walmart this weekend, I saw an assortment of kiddie pools all lined up.  I immediately thought of Benny, Henry & Luna and thought that since Benny & Luna don’t really care much for the pool since they can’t touch the bottom that this would be the perfect way for them to cool off while everyone else was swimming.  So we splurged and spent the $8.00 on the pool and went to the checkout with huge grins on our faces.

It was plenty hot this weekend and we couldn’t wait to cool off on the pool on Saturday.  So, before we got in we setup the pugs’ new puppy pool.  They were immediately interested in what we were doing, but Benjamin & Luna got a little less interested when they saw that we were putting water in the pool.

After everything was setup, we plopped Henry in the pool.  He turned around in a circle and immediately jumped out of the pool.  He simply could not be seen in such a baby pool.

Next in was Luna, and this came as a complete shock to us, but little Luna like the pool the best!  She walked around a bit, and stood (she would not sit) there cooling down.

Benjamin was very confused by the pool and was not sure why we had purchases such a big water bowl.  When we put him in the pool he just walked around lapping up all the water and throughout the day he kept walking over to the pool, sticking his head over the edge and helping himself to a refreshing drink.

Even though Luna liked the pool, she didn’t really want to be in there all by herself.

After the pugs had a chance to play in there pool, I think the general consensus was that the next time I am in Walmart, I should only visit the grocery side of the store and I should not come home unless I have treats for pugs.  Oh, well!  At least the cat liked the pool!
