Blueberry's Water Balloon

Blueberry is a Springer Spaniel. In days long ago, her lineage was bred to fetch ducks for hunters. She had a job. I love dogs who at some point in their breed had legitimate jobs.

So Blueberry's family job was to pick up ducks and other water fowl. They were bred to have "soft mouths" just for this purpose.

Notice Blueberry is carrying around a water balloon. She carried it around and would sit by it and nuzzle it. Obviously she is still carrying her trait of having a soft mouth. So unusual that she wouldn't just pop it!
