Bob cannot swim

Bob is a dog who loves the ground and hates water. Bob always plays catch game with Oscar, the owl. Once Oscar throws the ball into the river, Bob doesn't fetch it back. When it rains heavily, Oscar falls into the river unfortunately. This time Bob jumps into the river and saves Oscar bravely. He also realizes that swimming is not as hard as he imaged. Then he starts to play with more friends, and try more games, whether he needs to leave the ground or not.
