Dog Dances with Dolphins

Kira, a black Labrador Retriever, has an unusual passion – swimming with dolphins.

Kira lives with her owner, Nora Withers, founder and owner of Somente Aqua Dolphin Centre in Mozambique, a country in Southeast Africa. The operation offers tourist excursions and dolphin education and conservation programs.

A recent video of Kira shows how the lab jumps in the water and happily paddles in and around a pod of dolphins. The dolphins seem to enjoy their new friend!

The center’s team refers to the water-loving pup as “the dolphin spotter.” She goes out on the boat, searching for her finned friends. In the video, once she spots a fin popping up out of the water, Kira eagerly dives in to join the fun.

The center’s web site says that Kira “accompanies most of the dolphin excursions.” And they even named a boat after her – the KIRA.
