00:00
My dog refuses to jump in the water to get his ball.
00:02
No, no, that one's mine.
00:04
No, that one's mine.
00:06
That one's mine.
00:08
He'll use his oat boat until he manages to get the ball without getting wet.
00:14
It's as if the floor, or should I say the water, is lava.
00:18
Go get it.
00:19
And the most ridiculous part is that once he's able to grab the ball,
00:22
he will jump off and get it that way,
00:25
as if that wasn't the most obvious option from the very start.
00:29
Because funny enough, Oatmeal's most favorite thing to do in this world is swim.
00:34
And once he's in the water, there is simply no way of getting him out.
00:38
Not a day goes by without him cracking me up.
00:43
Either with his T-Rex impersonations,
00:45
or his classic "the clingiest dog on this planet" act,
00:49
where he'll hold onto me like a little princess.
00:52
I love him so much, which is why most of my earnings are spent on him.
00:57
And for the past couple of months, I've been renting homes with pool
01:00
so he can do his favorite thing in the world.
01:02
Oatmeal's love for swimming began over a year ago,
01:10
when I used to live with my ex, who had a backyard pool.
01:12
Rough day at the office.
01:19
Am I right, Oatmeal, or am I right?
01:21
When we broke up, I lost a partner, and he lost, well, pool access.
01:27
This transition was definitely a difficult time for me,
01:30
and watching my best friend lose his spark made it even harder.
01:33
So one day, I had a random idea.
01:35
Let's rent a dog-friendly vacation home with a pool, just as a temporary escape.
01:41
And Oatmeal had the absolute best time.
01:44
So much so, that I knew I had to do it again.
01:47
So I started saving some money and making it a weekly thing.
01:49
During that time, I would post a couple of videos from our pool adventures,
01:54
and to my surprise, they blew up overnight.
01:57
My friend is flying!
01:58
And eventually, we were able to continue to travel and rent more places throughout the year.
02:02
Looking back, I couldn't be more thankful for all of the turns this chapter of my life has taken.
02:11
What started out as an escape plan turned into the biggest dream come true.
02:18
You look so good. You ready to go swimming?
02:23
And now, we are finally moving into our very own place, with 24-hour pool access nearby.
02:28
And all thanks to Oatmeal, because without him, I wouldn't have ever dreamt this big.
02:35
Yeah, come on!
02:39
Oh no! Titanic!
