Chuck has jumped in the pond only twice. He was told NO after the first time and the second time was when he first realized there were fish in there. That was last year.
He just watches now and doesn't even think about going in any more. I'm waiting to see what happens when he sticks his mug a little closer and gets "kissed" by one of the koi.
The fish are friendly enough now that they will suck and kiss your hand when you stick it in the water. I was wading in the pond over the weekend and was a little startled when I was getting "nibbled" on by the koi.
Cooter the hound acts a little different, she gets close to the water and when the fish come over she barks at them. I want to see her reaction when one of the koi bites her ears that hang down into the water
