It’s Monday. The weekend is over. It’s time to get back to the grind.

But we think we need a quick weekend from our weekend before we slip back into work, much like these dogs slipping into a pool for a session of free swim.

We also think we need a moment to reminisce about summer as well.

With a hip soundtrack and gorgeous footage of happy dogs frolicking in the water on a sunny, glistening day, the video is a dreamlike celebration of fun in the sun. If we close our eyes, we see dogs swimming through outer space in our imaginations, chasing Saturn-shaped dog treats and rolling in comets (it’s sort of like rolling in grass). We feel happy and content, and we don’t care that there’s a million unanswered e-mails in our in-boxes demanding our attention. We’re going to drink our coffee slowly and giggle quietly to ourselves as we watch the Corgi in the video wiggle and jump into the water with glee.

There. Don’t you feel better? Don’t you feel ready to face the week?

Imagine you’re one of the dogs in the video and that the week ahead is the pool. Ready, set, jump, and swim. The weekend will be here soon enough.
