Just because some big dogs are brawny doesn't mean they have to be brave all the time. They're allowed to have fears just like little dogs. Take Sampson, the giant English Mastiff, for example. Swimming may be fun for some, but it isn't quite Sampson's cup of tea. Watch him fear for his life in the arms of his owner as they float slowly around the pool. When the owner finally releases Sampson, the dog quickly paddles to the edge for safety. His face just screams, "Get me out!" More English Mastiffs: ...
98 percent of cats satisfy their water curiosity by tentatively pawing at taps or slurping up the remainder of your shower puddles. But there are a few brave felines that look upon a vast body of water and say, "Bring it on." This is one those rare felines. Faced with a glistening ocean of H2O, this cat doesn't run away hissing, but instead dives in showing off his best kitty paddle. ...
Season1255, YouTube It's summer, you guys. True, we're three weeks away from the actual summer solstice, but everyone knows the "official" starting day of the season doesn't mean anything. Like anyone's going to wait until the end of June to start having summer fun. Memorial Day has passed, and that means it's time to put on your shorts and flip-flops and head down to the beach or pool to get tan and maybe have a swim. Or if you're more the draw-the-shades-and-hide-from-skin-cancer type, it's time to crank up the air conditioner and hunker down for a few months.

At the Longleat House and Safari Park in the UK, Beverley Allen is teaching two tiny otters how to swim. The pair, named Sumalee and Kasem, are being given swimming lessons in a baby pool in preparation to be returned to their Mom Mum and Dad. Allen took over hand raising the otters because their mother was too old to produce milk for them. According to the Longleat House website, "the cuddly creatures live in her spare room, scamper round the house after her and even sit on her lap while she watches television." Initially she had to bottle feed them every two hours so having them in her home at night made that possible. Says Allen about the cuddly cuties, "I started off putting them in ...
Those little legs, that stout build, and those floppy ears? It's enough to send a corgi owner swooning with delight for his cuddly little friend. Moreover, the first time around, we were as thrilled as crazy dog people like us can get at the sight of a corgi -- such a cute breed -- doing a full-on belly flop! Well, Cooper is back, and he's still in his adorable doggie floatie device. (What are you trying to do to us, make us choke on our own excitement?) This time at Thetis Lake in Victoria, British Columbia, Cooper takes another plunge into the water. And once again. we're all watching in delight. More Cute Videos ...
