A Dog’s Life: Kennedy And His Love Of Dolphins - IMRAN™

            A Dog’s Life: Kennedy And His Love Of Dolphins - IMRAN™ 

(Memories: Kennedy Happy Watching Dolphins At Sunset Daily Exactly 5 Years Ago Today.)

My precious German Shepherd Dog Kennedy loved horses - a lot. But the only creatures that he fell in love with even more were dolphins. 
From the very first time he saw a dolphin from the dock of my blessed home on Tampa Bay, Florida, five years ago, he went absolutely wild with joy and excitement. His mad love for them only grew with time. This is a video screenshot from one of the many times the dolphins would even come up close to him playfully. 
Kennedy was incredibly restrained and almost never barked except for genuine alerts. But he would bark excitedly running back and forth on the dock when he’d hear or see a dolphin. 
One time he was so fixated and excited he actually went over the edge of the dock right into the water. It was funny to see his almost-embarrassed look when he climbed back up the seawall and came back on the dock. 
Ironically, the younger more rambunctious GSD K2 waits for dolphins too, but Kennedy’s love was far more vocal and visible. Manatees are mammals too but they didn’t get the same reaction from either dog. 
Some dolphins seemed to respond to Kennedy with regular approaches to make eye contact. A couple would even sometimes come flip and splash us with water. They likely agreed with me. Best dog ever.
