Sometimes animals get crazy notions. My big 135# dog would walk around
puddles because she didn't want one bit of water on her.
She would never get into the pool, nor when we moved to Hawaii would she
walk on the beach. When you tried to pull her near the water, she dug her
"cat claws" into the sand.
