Gliding Retriever

I am always in awe when I watch a Golden swim--they are so perfectly built for it. Wriggling their bodies to propel themselves like an eel, and using those webbed paws like underwater rutters both to assist and direct their forward motion, the water in front of them is often still as glass--devoid of all the splashing and commotion of less adept dogs. This is my girl Imi in her element.
