Mishka Swims!



Here are some photos and a video to prove it, Mishka can swim! He didn't like going in, and either had to be pulled in by his leads or literally dropped in (there is a carrying handle on the back of the lifejacket!), but once he was in, and so long as he was away from the sides of the pool, nature took over and he swam. Scientists say that a 5 minute swim is equivalent to a 5 mile run, so although he was only doing 2 lengths of this 5 metre pool at a time, it should have been enough to tire him out.
We'll do another one or two sessions in here in the Spring, then we'll take him down to the Thames and see if he'll swim in there!
