I have never seen a lab w/a life vest on.......

I saw Ken's answer, and in small, shallow inland water, it might seem
unnecessary, but on bluewater, at a large marina and other areas, it can
be dangerous for _any_ dog not to be in a floatation device. We have a
water-loving husky who is as big a water fan as any lab, but in
circumstances like the aforementioned, she has her vest on. At about a
year old, she jumped from a finger pier at the slip and I almost had to
go in after her. We finally got her up and out, but none of us enjoyed
it. She never did it again, but we take no chances.

We put all our canoe practice to the test. I took Kaylin
up to the Northwoods for a day of paddling and fishing.
Well, mostly paddling, with a puppy in the boat you don't
really get to do a whole lot of fishing. ;-)

Here's some pics and Louie and Timmmmmay should be pleased
to note that my bony knees are nowhere to be seen. ;-)
