Millie cannot decide how she feels about the water. She is so intrigued by it, and wants to go in… but won’t go in willingly. Also, the pool sides are far too high for her to climb out on her own so when she falls in, she freaks out and you have to hoist her up out of the water.
We think it might be that 1.) she can’t wade in because by the second step, she’d be in over her head; 2.) she can’t see very far down — we can tell by how stressed she gets when you dive under water. I wonder if she’d love the ocean or if she would be scared of the waves? She’d probably like a lake.
Either way, she loves pool toys and biting things and then running away and destroying them. One time she got a bit of a pool noodle and there were little pink bits of noodle all over the camp!

Oh I LOVE that pool, I’d live in there if I had one.
That’s cute, you can tell she really wants in there but just isn’t too sure. :)
What a great series of photos. Poor Millie…
I love the pictures of her sticking her head under the water. LOL How cute!
Too cute! I also like the photo of her head in the water!!
Ah yes…Dogs! Now you’ve got my attention. :-)
Elise is really scared of pools too!
(I think because her legs are too short to swim right.)
But at least Millie gets in the water a little.
Elise won’t even fo that!
Oh how funny! Millie just needs a little encouragement is all. :D
GO MILLIE GO>>>>YOU’LL LOVE IT! How beautiful you are Millie and your pool…how cool!
She looks to heavy for me to help out…my dogs don’t like the waves…they want to walk out in the ocean but easily scared back in…at least my boys…the girls haven’t been except one calm beach with rocks to break the waves! I don’t know about a lake. Back in MN, I don’t think Bravo ever wandered into the lake. I guess I was too protective! It’s OK Millie, your hairs would just block up the drain(lol) and you wouldn’t want to spoil your spotted coat! Thanks for sharing!
