In the mood (and the pool) for summer

I'd like to thank K-Mart for the best $11.97 I ever spent...

We couldnt get Peety out till we dumped the pool over and my female, "Kaytee" was loving it almost as much...

Please enjoy..

What gorgeous dogs! I love JRTs. I have a JRT mix who is the same color as yours. (Charlotte in my sig pic)

Great photos! Your crew are like little kids enjoying themselves in that pool!

Jack Russells are great dogs, they have the best personalities.

Thank you guys!
And yes, they really are great dogs as dogs go. We did have one minor issue with the whole "pool" thing however. The dogs drink so much of the water in the pool that they end up peeing all day. This isn't a problem really, but sometimes they have so much fun outside, they forget to do what comes naturally. They wait til they get inside and I would imagine that the A/C has a calming effect on them, so much so that ALL their muscles then relax. Instant wee-wee on carpet. Mind you, it's a VERY rare occurrence, and again, it only occurs when they're around water. It's still a situation we would like to avoid in the future. Any ideas to make this go away?

The only thing I can think of is to clip them on a leash and have them focus on pottying before you bring them in.
