Hi, Anyone able to ID this turtle? This the info I have on it "Does not swim, just sits in water, and likes to stay in a dog house."

I hope the image URL section takes two pics...

I'm not 100% but it looks like one of the subspecies of CA woods? Maybe one of the south american ones.

They like to hang out in shallow water, filtered. Dog house? no. If it IS indeedy a CA Wood, they like to DIG under dirt/leaflitter.
