Dog Commandeers Paddleboard during Timed Photo

Occurred on August 11, 2021 / USA

: "My boyfriend and I were backpacking in the Alpine Lakes Wilderness with my pup, and he had carried up a paddle board too! My Apple Watch had died so we couldn’t take timed photos, so we decided to set up a video and then screenshot from it afterwards. Unfortunately my setup was poor so my boyfriend’s face wasn’t in frame, but we set up our poses, talked about whether to wear sunglasses or not, and then smiled. Little did I know my dog had hopped on the paddleboard that was sitting in a cove and had pushed her way out onto the glacier lake! This led to a panicked dog mom (me) and a wonderful boyfriend who saved the day!"
