Captain X is not a dog at all. He is in fact a furry dolphin.
Rah, Jesse and I discovered this to our amusement (and our clothing's detriment) when he took a running leap into Marydale Lake and then didn't want to get out again. He hunkered down and had himself a good long soak in the duckweed, then shook it all off onto me. I expected whale-song for a while there.
It was a tiring walk, so he's chilling out in the bathroom with a dish of water. I've been putting him in there for meals and short confinement sessions since last night, which I think helps him not get overwhelmed as much by the newness of it all.
He likes to sit quietly and people-watch with his back pressed against my leg. Sweet guy.
Now I'll nap and work on the comic. It's gonna be SO late.

Aww neat! He's already bonded with you and accepted you into his pack. Now all you have to do is make sure you become, and stay, the alpha-dog in the pack.
