: Oy! Talk about scary!!

So today My coworker/friend and I took Maggie and Roxie to the beach today. We had a blast except for one incident. When we were coming down a huge dune, Maggie was really hyper and was running. Well when she got to the bottom, I'm not so sure what happened but she fell into the creek! Me and Savanna were still at the top and we saw her basically go under, come up and try to grab a tree stump, go back under, and then I finally ran down there and pulled her out. But luckily she was fine afterward and we didn't have to leave. She dried off fairly fast and didn't seem fazed at all. However I on the other hand was absolutely terrified and will be investing in a doggy life jacket for her now. I know she's not a big fan of water but I never realized she couldn't swim! :o

And now you know what it's like being a mother.

Exactly the reason why I'm never having kids! :P Maggie worries me enough and don't get my started on my other furkids. I'm surprised my hair hasn't turned grey yet!

Anyways thanks guys, Maggie is sleeping soundly, she was basically knocked out as soon as we got home. Roxie is too. YEA!!

Good thing everything worked out!

Zoey actually doesn't know how to swim either because the concept terrifies her. We tried everything as a puppy and could never get her to go in, and the one time she did she chased a stick into the water and then freaked out like "help, help, where did the ground go ???"
