I had black Lab that loved the water. While was never known to chew on rocks
he liked to retrieve them. I have had a few Labs over the years. They all
loved the water but Bart was the only one who would swim underwater to
retrieve rocks. It beats me how I could throw a rock in to the water and he
would come back with the same one I threw.
