Swim for
fun
Swim your dogs just for the fun and give them a different form of exercise, which is enjoyable and kind on the joints.

We have a wide variety of toys at the pool to engage and entertain your dog. More importantly, both Pauline and Darryl absolutely love being in the pool with the dogs and their enthusiasm and excitement will get even the least interested dogs enjoying themselves.

Come on, the water’s warm, stimulating the nerve endings, opening blood vessels all over the body, and thus improving muscle tone and circulation. Swimming is one of the best forms of exercise for dogs.

Fun-swimming will not as stringent as the hydrotherapy. Your dog is swimming for fun and to increase their fitness.

We will require the same forms and signatures as for hydrotherapy. You can choose not to have your dog vet checked, but in the interest of your dog health and safety, we prefer that you do.

The swimming will be more relaxed. Darryl will still carry out a health check on your dog. Your dog may not need a buoyancy jacket. You can swim more than one dog if you have a pack.

A therapist will be in the pool with your dog at all times.

Duration of time in the water will be up to 20 minutes dependent on your dog's ability and stamina.
