Will hire out for tree limb removal no charge.

A dyslexic bad punctuation ramble as i sit outside on patio with two exhausted dogs.
Decided to take Dunc the five year old golden retriever and Oliver eight months old Pyrenees pup to play in the stream yesterday.
Dunc loves to swim yet these two spent majority of their time not swimming in deep part of creek no they spent it in low water trying to get this tree limb that was lodged between rocks.

On recovery operations first you try to drag it big fail. Then you try to dig in the water my golden floof Dunc was splashing water digging .
And I think Oliver was getting a little upset with getting wet with the splashing water hitting him even though he was soaked from being in the stream because he started barking at Dunc.
Even barking in frustration at tree branch was a no go. So then Duncs like i have idea go full zoomies Oliver you wait here.
Dunc stops to look and the tree branch after running around in stream and comes to the conclusion we still have a stuck.
Dunc is a real problem solver okay maybe I’ll lift my leg and pee on the branch lubricants may help Oliver. Dunc pee was a no go it was still stuck.
So i walked out grabbed the branch and they dragged it to stream bank. And then attention span of a brick these two decided to go swimming in the deep part of the stream.

Digging in water...

Amd after all that effort, they ignored the branch to go swimming once you pulled branch out?

Thx for sharing, Dunc.

They couldn't go swimming in the deep part until that branch is freed from the rocks! First things first!
