nice Neuffie!!

I here they can be trained to use a net for you, is this true?:lol:

Kerry,

I thought that paw print looked suspiciously canine when I first saw it - but then? Yep, check your wildlife ID book - big droopy/floppy ears, large slobbery mutton head - that is the key ID features of the Nuffielandis Gigantis Caninedensis. Tail looks a little long for the “average Bear” also! Consult your nearest Park Ranger for info concerning bears,black, 1ea. LOL!!

Water does look inviting though!
