Romeo Swims

We took Romeo swimming tonight in the Mill river behind Harris Pond at 6 PM. It was 92 degrees and sunny. We put him in his orange doggie life jacket and attached the extra long leash. He needs both of these tools because otherwise he sinks a little bit and wanders off. I jumped in and swam with him. It was fabulous. We played fetch the stick and he loved it. He gulped a lot of water. Soaking wet he looked shiny and muscular like black beauty. We dried him off with a huge towel and then walked around the neighborhood so he could pee. We ran into 3 other friends Deb, Steve and Celeste walking their dogs and Peter who gave me a stack of art books. A beautiful day.
