Waterproof Alsatian

Waterproof Alsatian Alsatian dog lives under the sea along with spoon billed turtle and a dolphin who is normal. Follow concrete pier into the shallows, angling down into deeper water light fading shines no more. Here they play, special dog with oily coat swimming and turning eating fish. Surfaces to breathe, spoon billed turtle is his friend. Both nature’s odd balls looking after each other, having fun with the lonely dolphin. His kind swam off leaving him alone. Then came the dog, waterproof alsatian, looks like a normal short hair brown and black, his coat has a thick layer of oil like a duck’s. He barks and plays but can see underwater and has a permanently wet nose. Fish food is his favourite and he sleeps on the current, floating legs down, tail swinging side to side, waterproof alsatian in the sea.
