rocko's identity revealed

It is official: Rocko is a Labrador retriever in Rottweiler's clothing.

Lisa noticed, immediately upon bringing him home from the shelter, that his toes are webbed. Then one day he needed a walk during a rainstorm. Lisa carried an umbrella, while Rocko carried on as if the sun was shining.

No shrinking back when the door is opened and rain is splashing everywhere; Rocko is ready to go and can't understand why you need an umbrella.

And his general demeanor is that of a Lab-type dog.

Today we had the garden hose running and he had so much fun that I took a video with our camera. I'll probably post it later, when I figure out how to do so. In the meantime we want to get him over to the dog park.
