Pup Lands Summer Job at Community Pool

Nougat, a Golden Retriever puppy who is currently visiting America from his home in Sydney, Australia, has landed a job at a local community pool.

The dog, who is reportedly an excellent swimmer and extremely personable, will be in charge of collecting all pool toys and storing them at the end of each day.

“He’s already improved our system,” said lifeguard Olivia Gallo. “We used to just throw everything into one big bin. But Nougat has developed a cataloging system – pool noodles with pool noodles, inflatable floaties with inflatable floaties, and so forth.”

According to Gallo, the puppy has taken to the job with gusto. In addition to the pool toy organizational system, he’s also made a number of friends among patrons.

“He’s a hit around here,” she said. “People are going to be really disappointed at the end of summer when he has to go back to Sydney.”

A group of Ralphie’s friends are planning an intervention next week.

According to local news reports, a puppy is refusing to come out of the rain. 

The dog, a Shiba Inu, went out to play a few hours ago and was called inside when a handful of rain squalls blew through the area. But he refused, instead opting to stay outside and get drenched.

“He’s being quite cheeky about it,” said to Tammy Culpo, a field reporter for the local NBC affiliate, who indicated during her last update that the puppy has been making faces at those inside for the better part of an hour.
