Will Scooby be needing a lifejacket? Knowing how clumsy our 11-year-old cockapoo is, it’s a definite yes and the boatman helps our slightly bemused dog into a bright orange inflatable vest.
Scooby then clambers aboard our flat-bottomed cruiser (electric, in a very environmentally friendly way) for a few hours pottering around on the Norfolk Broads. It takes a while for Scooby to find his sea legs – there’s quite a bit of slipping and sliding as the boat bobs along – but once he has nabbed a perch by the steering wheel he is content.
That is what this trip was all about – keeping Scooby happy.
