We thought it was so funny seeing Dan slide around on the ice, as you can hear from Helen laughing in the above clip, and from me being unable to hold the camera steady. The ice was several inches thick.
Cheers, Tom.

oh bless him.
what a lovely laugh your wife has too.
Can i ask you a serious question? i have been reading about all these people dying in lakes as they have fallen through the ice or jumped in to rescue their dogs. I have never had a dog so i don't understand people who risk their life for a dog. But at the same time i do sort of understand as they are part of the family and i would do it for my children.
Would you jump in a frozen lake for your Dog?
sorry, i hope that doesn't come across as cruel or sinister, it is just something i truly don't understand x x x x-

Morning! A dog really does become a member of the family and we become very attached to them. They have absolute love and devotion to their human keepers. I wouldn't risk my own life for Dan, but I'd try damned hard to rescue him if he did fall through the ice.

thanks. see to me that seems sensible, it's just that usually when i hear people have died jumping in to rescue their dogs, the dogs always manage to survive!!!!

I was killing myself when I first saw him sliding round like that :-)
It was amazing how quickly he learned to cope with it though. I took another video a few minutes later and he was hardly sliding at all. Clever doggie! -

That's just precious! Dan's escapades always make me smile. I only wish I could say my girl was that graceful, but she always falls on her butt on ice. It's still too new to her, and she's not quite got that fourth leg back up to par. Doesn't seem to phase her though, she still thinks all the rabbits don't stand a chance.

Aw that was lovely to see thanks for sharing Tom I was only thinking today would I rescue my doggie if he fell in the pond we have a pond near us so I keep him on a lead as a few people have lost their lives for there pets I adore my dog but would I attempt to save him I expect I would make an attempt even though it would be foolish

I think it's one of those things where it might be difficult to predict what you'd do until it happens. I don't think I'd just leap in, but I'm sure I'd try hard to do something.

Yeah! I feel good with my muscles.
Seems this intense cold is good for
the myasthenia.
I've been running around for the
first time in years!
Nice while it lasts!!
