Hoss was rescued from a Springfield, Tenn., animal shelter when he was just seven weeks old. He weighed a mere six pounds. Hoss was adopted on a Thursday and started boating the next day at Dale Hollow State Park Marina. He is the watcher for the sunrise ski run and he enjoys going out on the houseboat and running and swimming with all his doggie friends.

Boating is a way of life for him. He gets so excited on Fridays when he sees the bags being packed up to go to the lake.
