I'm curious.....
Just poking around at some some member pics, and I see some dogs eagerly jump off piers, and into deep water, as part of their training. I'm just wondering how the handlers of these dogs get them back on the pier, and out of the water? |

The dog swims back to shore.

Rocky jumped off the boat dock once. We had to haul him back in like a big fish. He was strongly discouraged from jumping off the boat dock again.

Also, there are vests that have handles where you can grab the dog and help pull them back up too.
