My pup would do the same at the lake . Little shih-tzu cross hated it when her ball was floating because every time she grabbed at it the ball would sink a little. She finally would work her ball onto the beach then pick it up. Would be running in out of the water for hours to play fetch.
I love golden’s! They are the best dogs. We have had 3. Murphy lived to 13 and had cancer. Marvin dies unexpectedly at 9 and had a bleeding abdominal tumor. Our current big guy is Melvin. He’s 1 and full of puppy craziness.
That is absolutely hilarious! Poor babies, they were definitely working it out. I truly hope their endeavors were successful, they deserve that tennis ball! (assuming that dog mom or dad had to step in and assist)
But not crystal clear water. They retrieve based on a bunch of inputs *not* including being able to see the target underwater. The visual distortion is throwing them, because they can see it, but it isn’t where it appears to be, and neither are their paws. They probably feel like they’re on drugs.
I just learned all about Archimedes' Principle. This must be warmer water, therefore the ball sank. But also, I’m on the “help them get it!” side here.
The refractory effect of the water may be the puzzlement. But is there any creature besides a human who wants to stick their head in that chemical water?
No, that can't be it. Anything that is the right size and the right weight to be a regulation tennis ball will float, whether it's filled with pressurized air or has a "solid" core.
This one must have been fiendishly altered in some perverse fashion. The horror!

so golden.
A plot by big tennis ball against very good golden boys.
Then he realized that at lakes & rivers, he didn't need to wait for something to be thrown, he could dive for whatever he found, all the time.
Tub & Blue are amateurs, sorry.
