The chances are your dog would get out, while you drown. Yes it is stupid, but im sorry - id take the risk.. Ps, you can get adult swimming lessons these day's you know Didnt you learn how to swin in primary school.? I'd pay £1000 to watch Scott splash about without a pair of armbands on.................

Strong Stuff 2,171 Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 Sad news that! Rob 1930856812003754 and I go there quite a bit, the dogs are in and out of the river, but you can see from the banks how deep it gets at times, and it definitely is fast flowing. I don't think either of us 2 are in much danger of being washed away though, but it's that dilemma isn't it ............ do you go in if your dog is in trouble? I can't say if I would or not in honesty, I don't think I would but .......... Oh.....is Rob an ice breaker SS?..... No more than me mate, neither of us are what you'd call "dainty" LOL Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sowhat 1,572 Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 I wouldn't risk my own life to save my dog either, as much as I love them, my family is more important. Having said this, who knows how you'd feel in that situation.,it might be just a spur of the moment thing, I hope I never have to find out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

"Earth!" 503 Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 got to be honest id jump in if i thoughtthe og was in trouble thats just me, my dog , As would i id imagine.. all the hours etc put into getting them to a standard then to watch them drown... id imagine id jump in without thinking... have had a few dogs that id quite happily watch drown too rather than spend half hour digging the fecking hole, the tide could bury them for me Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That what is it, sowhat said it aswell - you just do not know for sure what you will do in the moment I say i wouldn't hesitate - but i cant guarantee it until i was put in that situation.
