Swimming at Peninsula State Park

On our trip to Door County, WI we set up camp in Tennison Bay at Peninsula State Park which happens to be the kayak launch area in the park. This meant lots of doggy swim time. The launch was a short walk from our site and consisted of a concrete ramp leading down to the rocky shore. The water was just deep enough to accommodate a good game of fetch with P's floating toy. 



Porter met another yellow lab one afternoon at the boat launch in North Nicolet Bay where a good game of jumping off the pier commenced. The only thing we were disappointed in was the fact that dogs are not allowed on Nicolet Beach where the people swim, however a few other state parks in the area do allow dog swimming on beaches including White Fish Dunes State Park.

Porter seems to chase anything that floats in the water. We usually use an orange float dummy or a stick but tennis balls work great too. 

What is your dog's favorite swim toy?
