Travel Dog Blog, Maggie on the Water February 28, 2013 by KTgreen Maggie hates water. Baths, swimming, anything to do with wet. But she loves to go out on the boat or kayak. If we are kayaking, Maggie is, too. And she wears her life jacket. Maggie on the boat visiting the Homosassa River. And here she is on Mason Creek. Such a sweet calm pooch. Until a fishing pole appears. She suddenly turns into a whirling dervish. Barking, lunging, total crazy dog. And that’s why Maggie doesn’t go fishing.
