 He doesn't even know what's coming. Hey, it was a few guys. So on Julian's vlog channel last week as many of you guys saw We did have a little of an accident permit was chasing a squirrel and skidded on the deck part next to our pool And did fall into the pool. It was so not funny at the time Julian saved him. He was swimming He knows how to swim a little bit. It's very funny now But after that everyone was like you should try and teach them how to swim They know how to swim like out of survival But I guess I've never actually tried to teach them how to swim because they don't really enjoy the water They have shown no interest in wanting to go in like if you're floating on a raft like they'll sit with you They enjoy that but in terms of swimming, they're not really water dogs I would love to be able to teach them how to swim to like that shelf in there or the stairs like just out of pure survival Because I think it's a worthy endeavor to just try and if this were to actually happen It would probably take a very long time to teach them But there's no better time to start than now I've looked up a couple of different types of YouTube videos about people trying to teach dogs to swim and it all for the Most part just looks a little bit of a mess. You get them in there You try and teach them to swim you see how the dog responds I'm going to do my very best to make sure that they're safe that they're not too stressed out They're also like my dogs I think I can read them pretty well, and I'm not gonna do anything that's gonna stress them out too much But like I said, they don't really have any interest in going in the pool So they're not puppies It's gonna be a little difficult to get them to decide that they want to go in the pool So I'm hoping that we can teach them if they ever fell in the pool how they can get out Which is mostly my concern like they don't have to be crazy about going swimming to me I just would like it if maybe they knew how to save themselves Kermit did everything right though He kept his head above the water. He was just in there, but like we're always watching them when we're outside I'm not like genuinely fearful that they're gonna fall in pool And we also have like a pool alarm to that we can put in there. We have one of those We just haven't installed it yet, but I'd say let's try let's see how they do and unlike all the other times that they've gone Swimming with me in the past. I don't got them some life jackets You know, I feel like that's a good way to train them because I have seen dog videos where the people train them with life jackets So we'll try so this is what these life jackets look like I say we put them on we take them outside I'll get in the pool have some treats see if we can get them interested the only one I think that would go for that and their wildest dreams is the food-driven one miss wheat Do you want to try this on honey? It's for pool safety And if y'all are asking if I'm really gonna wear all these clothes in the pool the answer is yes Because most of y'all are cool, but some of y'all are body shamers. I don't feel like hearing it today Kerm, you're gonna go swimming too. Don't worry Hey That feel good, huh? You look great. I feel good. What are you laughing about? Hey Bobby, he's so weird and awkward Bobby. I think yours is like gonna be kind of big bud I don't mind. I like but you're gonna look like a tiny little turtle. I don't know. It's not really about marble He's the least of my concerns. You know, it's the other two Be out of control How can she walk in it? Richie, come on. We're getting her mad Marble, I'm going in the living room He's like, I'm used to going on the couch Come on little turtle Yes, very safety and fashion Let's see if we can get any of them interested in coming into the water So food-driven Come on, come on Good girl That's a really good girl I'm really sorry for the noise People be cutting big ones Come on bud Good boy All this wheat just sitting in the water This is honestly farther than I've ever got All it takes is some treats Come on honey Come on, let's just water Come here Good girl Oh my god, she's like walking around Rich, can you sit in the water? She's such a good girl I can't believe it Kermi, come Oh, he's mad because I gave his treats a leash I might have to help Kermit in He still hasn't gotten past the initial legs Come on the stairs Okay, look sweet That's a good boy You did it, I know it's scary, honey Especially after you fell in the pool It was Marble Marble, we're doing swim lesson Come here She's actually like swimming I have a life jacket on, honey Oh, see, honey? Are you floating around? Come on, Miss Witch She's such a good girl Okay, baby Wow, Miss Witch She's so good Wow, that was so good This is probably going to be the hardest part It's just getting them comfortable Good girl I mean, not for peach Come on, baby Come on, Peachy There she goes Good girl She's so good I did not think she would be this good I'm shocked She's not the one that's going to fall in the pool It's this one Marble, you can't skip swim lesson, dude Did you drop it? Yeah, that's my necklace That I cared deeply about This one's clean Peach found the treat stash What a naughty Good girl, come on Good girl Good girl To not get in the water He is extra handsome In that life jacket I think I'm going to take him over there I'm going to just show him If he swims up to that part He can get out using that Good boy, bud This is the spot of the foul I'm so proud and amazed Why haven't we done this sooner? I don't know It makes you feel kind of dumb, honestly Marble is going to be interesting Hi, bud He's excited You can't jump off here or then you're swimming, bud Oh, you want to swim? Good job They're doing so much better than I ever thought We've already gotten them to this part where they can pull themselves out The pool is a little scary and I don't blame them because that's where the fear comes in but getting out of the pool and navigating the shallow spaces, they're getting really good at Come, come, come She needs to feel it first Come on, good girl So brave Why have we never done this before? We're really enjoying it I want to see how Marble will do that She just got in on her own Come on Ready? This way Good boy Come on, Kermit, be careful You got your feet Over the edges, bud Come on, honey Easy does it Good job, bud Good boy, come out Come on, bud That's such a good boy, Kermit That's like all it took was for us to work with him for a little bit and we would have swum straight to the shelf She just like something else She's so brave Ready? Good girl And then I think the next step after they get really comfortable with that is to take their life vests off but the amount that they've gotten comfortable with being in the water is like 0 to 100 I thought today it was just going to be a bunch of fear and they're so good and they're a Italian Grey House I don't know what kind of dog you have but they're probably a little smarter than us Speaking of intelligent animals I don't think that Bobby is going to ever willingly jump into the pool I'm kind of cool I'm cool with marbles never wanting to jump in the water He's way too chilled out for that but what I would like is for him to just get some practice swimming Where's where to go? I'm completely happy with that Do you want to treat? Absolutely not Bobby if you ever fell in the pool and you got to hear that's all I could ask for He has jumped out He just can't with this big vest on Bobby let's swim a little more This is a big swim Wow He's so silent Look at him Look at that little rudder Oh my God Come on bud It's okay it's helping you float Yes this way He's so fast He's so fast How is he so fast? He moves like in 100 miles an hour Good boy honey The life jacket is helping him float so much Try it again that was amazing He needs a little rest Kermit this is too big I'll take this off you in a little bit Right now I just want you to practice your little swims with your vest on Take him off to sea Here we go He's doing a lot Are you good? Do you want to go see mama? Alright come on call him He's easily the best swimmer He's silent and fast He's so fast He's a senior dog This is really good exercise He's keeping you nice and cool If you would accept the treat ever maybe it would be a rewarding experience for you This is all you want though huh? What the hell dude? When I'm hanging out on the raft he'll just sit there with me like this He does really like it I think they're all just generally scared of dipping their face under which is when you teach babies how to swim that's the scariest part putting your head under I know it's a lot Look at him God he's so impressive Oh good boy Good job bud Alright Kermit I know a lot of times their first instinct is to swim to the wall So if I could just get him to keep swimming this way and jump out like that's all I could ask for Marbles Like he doesn't need to enjoy swimming He's a five pound chihuahua Actually changed my mind He really wants to get out It actually feels very nice Show me those survival skills bud If for some reason you fell in the pool and I found you right here that's all mommy could ever ask of you I'm so proud of you Yes he's such a good boy This is the most that we're going to get out of Honestly I'm really impressed with how they did Marbles blew me away I've never been so impressed with anything physical that that dog has done 20 miles an hour silently and his tail was wagging They're not like jumping to get in the water which I think is fine like if they don't want to be swimmers at school all I care about is like if they fell in that they could figure their way out and I think with like a lot more time with them and working with them with treats and like figuring out which ways are safe for them to go like that's all you could ever want right No they did get that for the first one I'd say if I had to give a gold star for today it would be you miss Weech She has always been so trainable and brave and sweet and we're so proud of you little girl She's like the one we don't have to worry about you know Well Marbles too Honestly we just have to worry about Kermit all the time every day I also figured out what makes him so incredibly human is that he's the only dog that I know that loves me conditionally Like a human does Yeah exactly It's honestly one of the nicest things so with their coat it's just like a piece of paper so they could try in like four seconds Alright well I guess that's it I really wanted to try this and see what happened I've been shockingly pleasantly surprised Hey shut the hell up Shut up all you guys are in life jackets you look dumb I'm actually like looking forward to continuing doing this with them so that they can be comfortable enough if they ever fall in the pool again Kermit that they will be able to get out If you have a dog and some water I encourage you to work with them even if they're little and you think that they wouldn't enjoy it apparently if you just get a life jacket and some treats they'll do any fucking thing in the world so alright that's it make sure you subscribe to my channel I put it on every Thursday Wednesdays Thursdays They're all huddled in the sun Made of Irish Spring She just boxed him out I'll see you guys next week, bye
