Mylo is a swimmer!

Last week while Chris and I were on vacation we took Mylo up to Bloomingdales. Its a little conservation area with a bunch of trees and a lake. 

We were impressed with how well Mylo did off his leash. He stayed with us the whole time. 

But the funniest part was him and the water. There were at least 7 other dogs there going in to the lake and swimming. Mylo would only go as far as he could still be standing. Luckily Chris' aunt brought a ball and we would throw it into the water and mylo would retrieve it. 

At first he would wait till it waded closer to shore then slowly he would go a bit further to get the ball but when he would swim he was splashing like crazy, panicking to get back to shore.

Happily though, by the time we left Mylo realized that he could swim and that there was no need to panic and swam gracefully in the water.
