An Instagram video displayed a Great Dane dog feeling nervous before she jumped into the pool for a swimming session. The video captured the hearts of many on the internet, as people were happy that the dog had finally let go of her nervousness and made the first dive into the pool that day. The pet parent explained the entire situation in the post.
The owner began by penning, “When you love swimming but the first jump of the day is too scary.” The person continued, “Great Danes aren’t known for being swimmers, but Quinn is obsessed with our new pool.” They further wrote, “She begs to go in all day… but when it’s time for the first jump of the day she gets scared!” The owner concluded the caption by writing, “She is such a funny dog!”
The Instagram video started by showing the Great Dane, Quinn, gearing up to enter the pool. She was standing on the diving board, making several tippy taps, as she felt anxious about jumping in.
In the meantime, the dog’s owner, who was right beside her at the time, constantly encouraged her to dive into the pool. After many more tippy taps and checking the water with her little paws, the Great Dane finally decided to let go of her nervousness. She then made a big dive into the pool. While in the pool, the dog appeared to be quite comfortable as she retrieved a frisbee.
