This Adorable, Clumsy Labrador Retriever Might Be the Least Coordinated Water Dog Ever
Labrador Retrievers are famous for being natural-born water dogs, which is exactly why this hilariously clumsy Lab named Bo has completely won over the internet. After a four-mile walk with his mom, Hannah, Bo decided to cool off with a swim in the lake, but once he realized the water was deeper than expected, he sent out a dramatic plea for help in the funniest way possible.
Hannah later explained in a follow-up video that it's May in Minnesota, so the water was still freezing cold. She thinks the sudden shock of going from hot to icy cold may have been what turned Bo's normally graceful swimming into pure chaos. And make sure your sound is on because Hannah's friend laughing and narrating the entire ordeal makes the whole scene even funnier.

The Internet Can't Get Enough of Bo, the Most Uncoordinated Labrador Ever
Hannah's video racked up more than 6 million views and nearly 18,000 comments... people can't get enough of Bo and have some hilarious things to say about him. @EmotionalSupportMilf shared a screenshot of Bo dog paddling while waiting for Mom and said, "Good thing he didn't panic! LOL!"
@The Sattori cracked everybody up and got more than 123,000 likes when they asked, "How is he swimming 100% and 0% at the same time?" @Pacifico Beer wondered the same thing, "HOW IS HE NOT MOVING?" @Brian Brinkley401 added, "Bro swam 16 miles and never moved."
Another commenter said what we were all thinking: "THE FACT IT'S a labrador who can't SWIM IS SENDING ME lol!" @Piston Farmer shared, "He's all paddle and no swim."
@Kristin May pointed out, "I can't tell if he is having the time of his life or fighting for his life..." @garrettbader896 added, "Survival instincts: carrot."
Viewers were also thoroughly entertained by how proud Bo looked after finally making it out of the water, and by the fact that Bo and his mom apparently weren't speaking to each other on the walk home. It seems like Bo totally won over the entire internet with his shenanigans!
