Spaced out dog stands upright in a swimming pool

This adorable video shows a dog literally lapping it up as he chills out while standing upright in a swimming pool.Three-year-old Golden Retriever / Labrador cross August was enjoying a swim before he realised he could stand up on his hind legs and relax.Emily Rabuat, 33, filmed August's water antics in her mother's pool in St.

Petersburg, Florida, USA.She said: "Augie loves to go swimming (we call it 'schwaamming') and is definitely his happiest self in the water, always the first one in and last one out of the pool."He is typically known for his leaping belly flops and even dives under the water for sunken tennis balls. "However, this was a new move for August in the water.

On this day, he finally figured out he could touch the bottom of the pool and stand like a human!"Augie was in no way afraid or cold.

It was 95 degrees in Florida that day and he is the most confident four legged swimmer I've ever seen."I was reading poolside and noticed it got suspiciously quiet in the pool, especially for my typically rambunctious swimmer boy."I looked over to see him standing like this!

Had enough time to grab my phone and catch a clip.

Now he does this all the time! "I think it's a way for him to take a swim break without having to get out of the nice, cool pool.

Smart boy!  "Augie is a very special and goofy guy and without a doubt makes every day full of fun and laughter but this was just too much hilarity.

I knew I immediately had to capture this moment to share.
