At this week’s Flowdog swimming session, Kaiju got on a boogieboard for the first time. We had been trying to get him used to the board itself for the past couple of weeks by placing it near him while he swam. He started sniffing it last week, so Chris decided to try and putting him on it this week. Here are the photos!
confused and a little frozen
getting up!

COWABUNGA DUDE!!!!
Kaiju you are a hot surfer dude! You look like you are owning it in that first picture ^_^
So cute and amazing! I love the PFD they have on him, he looks great! What is the “end goal” for his boogie board activities? Increased/improved balance and stability?
The Flowdog sessions started out last fall as physical therapy for his knees. His legs still need a lot more muscles and strength, but these days, the sessions have become also about confidence-building, the area in which he could also use some major help. This Boogieboard thing was definitely part of that.

He looks amazingly calm for a Shiba trying to balance on water!
Kaiju looks awesome!
