Kayaking with a dog?

A couple weeks ago, the weather was actually sunny. Crazy, I know given the torrential downpour that has been our summer. However, we took advantage of the sun and tried something that Paula's always wanted to try...kayak with our dog, Maddie. (Just so we're all clear, I always told this would never work.)

So, here's what we did. We outfitted some padding to fit in and around the stern dry storage compartment where we hoped that Maddie would sit calmly.

 Then Paula got the kayak in the water and I tried to position Maddie into her compartment where she was to sit calmly and enjoy the weather and good company.  However, that didn't last very long at all.  Maddie wanted nothing to do with that cramped, unstable perch (just like I told Paula she wouldn't).
Not to worry, I took Maddie home while Paula hung out in her kayak and then we could finally enjoy the weather and a rare day off for Paula. 
Not a bad day.
