Hercules Afloat

Border Collie Hercules Swimming

Hercules mastering the waves


Always up to the Challenge

Hercules is a gentleman in every sense of the word always gentle, always sensitive and always the man! If the water is calm he can be calm too, if the water is rough - he can rise to the challenge and match it. Never beaten, always up to the test!

No less handsom when wet and always ready to give what ever is needed without ever going over the top. Hercules' view of swimming is like everything else in his life "if it pleases you I will do it as well as I possibly can".


 


Straight in with no hesitation.

This is easy


 


until someone turned on the jets

and turned them higher


 


and higher, when the going gets tough...

That was hard work


 

 


but we are still friends and I get to share a dryer with a beautiful young lady!



It takes a lot to tire Hercules but after the full power of the jets even he was ready for a rest while drying off. Hercules has undoubtedly benefited from the very demanding exercise that swimming has afforded him - as to how much he enjoys it, well - if it pleases you I will do anything!
