I have a black lab named Max, and we walk on the levees. He likes to chase tennis balls into the water. The more water, the better. He loves it.
The first part of the video was shot off the ferry going between New Orleans and Algiers a couple of days ago. The river was right at flood stage, 17 feet. It was still there yesterday when the dog and I went up on the levee to play. Several scenes show just how close the water is getting to the top of the levees. It's making people around here nervous ... but Max loves all that water. I threw his tennis ball in and he went right after it, fighting the current all the way back to the shore. I didn't throw it TOO far out because I didn't want my dog floating to the Gulf of Mexico!
