Ruth the Shark is quite fast in the water, with that huge muscular tail bolted onto her butt. (Don't talk about her tail like that to her face of course.) Her husband, a water drake, isn't as fast in the water and Ruth loves to tease him playfully about this. This of course ignores the fact that she is not as maneuverable in the water as he is, her tail is only really good for propelling her forward while his wings can propel him in about any direction he wants. Ruth doesn't accept any of that, for her it is all about the speed and if she has to drag him along like a dog pulls along its owner, than so be it. She will probably want to switch over to a harness after trying this once, since the collar does block some of her gill slits.
