What - the infamous Mike Mandley resurfaces!!! Where you been man?!
HAHA how you been ole brother, You still rolling that sexy Yellow ride? Man since I moved to GA and started traveling I just been elbows and butholes.
But after 6 years, I got everything paid for except the house, my sugar momma ( reason we moved to GA ) says time to come home full time IDC how much you make. So I am moving in that direction.
I am just glad I still have my Moomba brothers and sisters here.
If your dog is trained, he will behave calmly in the boat. German Shepherds are great to train, so I think you won't have a problem. This breed of dog is very popular because they can do different tasks. I also have a German Shepherd and had Service Dog Registration to officially register it as a service dog. It is very convenient because the dog accompanies me everywhere and helps me to navigate in space. I have vision problems, so it's hard for me to get around without help.
We were floating in the marina this weekend waiting for the trailer to be backed up and counted 8 huskies on a beautiful pontoon boat. The name of the boat was fittingly called "Out Numbered".

Our two huskies love it. For the most part, they are well behaved. Other days, a handful.
Usually days it’s just Summer and I they come. If we have a few friends, sometimes they stay at home.
They get the boat hairy, I do a lot of vacuuming. But, I lose the no dogs on the boat vote every time. I don’t put up a fight anymore. However on the next boat, the discussion has already been had. Lol

My brother in law has a neurotic little dog. He needs doggie anti-anxiety medication. They took their dog on the boat one time and he freaked out and managed to hide himself in one of the panels under the dash and disappeared into the hull. It took them hours to get him out! I guess it all depends on temperament, but watch out for little dogs.
That's more like a cat move! LOL!

My wife brought our littlest dog, who at the time was about 3lbs. She had gotten him this bejeweled collar with his name on it that was half his weight. He followed her everywhere.
She went out on the swim deck to take a leak and he followed jumping into the lake. Lucky she had good reaction time otherwise he’d of went straight to the briny depths.
She performed this lifesaving measure with her shorts around her knees holding on to the grab bar, barely breaking stream. It was early season, so the water was really cold. She had a lot of incentive not to let go of that grab bar.

"Accustom your pet to the water gradually, without rushing. Start by simply walking him in shallow water and letting him get used to the water.
During the second stage, interest the dog in a toy you throw into the water - at first near the shore, then gradually increasing the distance. I used the Duck Plush Stuffed Squeaky Rope Toy. My dog always liked toys like that. That's how I got him into the water the first time.
If the animal is nervous, you can take the pet in your arms and get as close to the water as possible. The presence of an owner nearby will calm the dog."
This sounds like an obvious question but you all that take dogs with you do you go back to a dock to find a place for your dogs to go to the bathroom. The lakes around us have rocky shores so no beaching the boat to get to some grass.
We carry a 5-Gallon bucket of dirt and put it out on the swim pad for our dog to use. ............................NO not really! But, something tells me somewhere someone had probably thought about that. Or is now anyway! LOL!
