All Labs are good swimmers, and Monty is no exception. Give him a small lake, a stick to fetch, and he's a hooligan in heaven.
After the extensive Winter rains, the lake is once again filled; ready to be pumped up to the farmers fields. It's an artificial lake with a huge pumping system. The local farmers joined forces with the commune to build it, and they now each pay a tiny sum into the village coffers for its use in times of drought.
Bok's a bit wary of water. Last year he almost started to swim, but this year he's back to just running about in the shallows again. I don't think he'll ever be a champion swimmer like his big brother.

Just like Sophie - she will swim all year.
Fabulous - do you ever join Monty for a bit of wild swimming?
It's where we always used to swim... until we built our own pool. We've never swum together.
Bok's just keeping watch for sharks. Beautiful boys.
I never ceased to be amazed at labradors and labradoodles natural love of water. I couldn't pay our Boris to go swimming!
Too shaggy maybe.... he'd absorb several gallons.
Someone has to stay on shore as lifeguard.
Yes, Bok is guarding the lake.
