When i was a kid i liked to play in all the puddles and flooded drains. Now that it's not "appropriate" to do myself.. ..i like to take my dog for a walk in places where there's lots of water and mud and so on. Then i can just watch her enjoy spring, i of course end up with an extremely muddy, smelly dog, but it's worth it ..She loves water, she just jumps in the drain not even knowing how deep it is, so sometimes she even swims in the middle of the last bits of ice ..she jumps out and back in again, she uses drains for a running track and puts her nose down like she was plowing the water (she always ends up with this dirt made hitler moustache)
Also when i go riding i try to make Windy run trough all the puddles. Though he has his own opinion about that...
