True, but in her case some of her breed does swim. I understand she may not ever get comfortable enough with water to join me on my kayak or on a boat. But I at least want to get her used to water vs freaking out. Of course she will have a life jacket

Exactly. I just want her to get acclimated to water in a safe environment. So that if she comes on a kayak with me, I don’t have to worry about her freaking out.

My dog is a puppy & she is scared of water
