Golden Retriever...Really?
So Leroy and I went for a walk and he found a duck. Like MOST retrievers, he jumped in the water and started swimming after it. Well, the female mallard let Leroy stay within 12 inches of her as she swam upstream, slowly tiring him. When he turned toward the shore, the duck began to follow him...until he got back in. This went on for a little while and then we decided to move further up the river and leave his playmate behind. After chasing rocks for a few minutes, further upstream, I heard a "quack, quack, quack" and the female Mallard came flying up to us and landed about 5 feet away. Leroy continued to chase rocks while the duck ate the rest of his dog treats out of my hands. I will try to upload a video from my phone! Hilarious day!!!
BTW I shot this without looking through the view finder so it is not a great shot but I thought it was cool!
