Lobster Dog

Man’s best friend has been known to fetch many things: sticks, balls, slippers, the newspaper; but what about a lobster dinner?

Alex Schulze has trained his black Labrador, Lila, to retrieve lobsters from the ocean floor.

He got the idea while out on the ocean; if a dog can fetch toys, surely it can fetch lobster.

The Training

Schulze began training in his backyard pool, teaching Lila to retrieve toys he held underwater.

Then while out free-diving, he put the dog’s skills to the test.

“Sure enough she caught a lobster on her first try, and the rest was history.”
