RE: Jerry Is Afraid Of Water But Follows Me Anywhere - #DogsOfSteemit #DailyPetPhotography
This is quite interesting. I never heard of a dog that didn't like to swim, let alone be afraid of the water. I did not know this certain fact about Jerry. Then... definitely Jerry needs more love around water. He must've had a bad experience in or around water before you adopted him that we don't know about... have you tried a "dog whisperer"? (There is such thing). Maybe you can get him to like water again or at least have him give up his fear. Very interesting. Jerry is lucky to have an owner like you because you're willing to risk for him. Maybe you can set up a "Jerry vs Water" Campaign. "Help Fight Your Fears." Lol!

We find it rather amusing, he absolutely loves to run on the beach but is afraid of the waves. We figure he must’ve had a bad experience with the rogue wave sweeping him in.
We haven’t tried a dog whisperer or anything like that but I have looked at different techniques as to how to introduce him so that he’s comfortable. So far we have gotten him to go in on his own once but he was chasing a bird.
Lol maybe I’ll do a photo compilation when we start trying to get him to swim again this year lol maybe someone will step forward with an idea that will work for him. It’s a very deeply ingrained fear but if anyone can break it that would be me!
