    If you were visiting The Dalles in late April of 2013, you might have seen Bobber the Water Safety Dog while on his road trip with park ranger Amber Tilton, Kelly Thomas and David Ladouceur from The Dalles Lock and Dam. The day-long tour included a stop at Columbia Hills State Park to promote water safety in the Gorge and perform free boater safety checks in partnership with rangers from Washington State Parks and Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife. They also visited Spearfish Lake and met with families who were there for the lakes’ opening fishing celebration … those casting for trout received bobbers, and kids were given coloring books to help remind them to stay afloat by wearing a properly-fitted life jacket. Bobber the Water Safety Dog and his entourage ended their water safety adventures at the annual Cherry Fest where Bobber fitted life jackets and demonstrated how to be a “Smart Thinker – Not a Sinker” by wearing a life jacket.
