Swimming Lessons
We offer private instruction April 1st - October TBD geared toward building your dog's confidence to swim from the ramp or jump from the puppy dock for their toy. Opening and closing dates are always weather dependent - check appointment page for updates.
We can help your dog learn to be an independent swimmer or get your puppy off to a positive start (we recommend starting puppies around 12 weeks, and in a water temperatures above 65 degrees). Dogs should have some toy drive for best success - meaning, at minimum they should have interest in chasing a toy on land before coming to the pool. Sign up for your dog's lesson today by clicking the scheduling link at the top of the page.

Swimming for fitness and fun
Swimming is one of the best forms of exercise for dogs of all ages. We offer non instructional swimming April 1st - October TBD. Many agility, herding, confirmation, mushing and other sport dogs use our pools for conditioning sessions to help keep their dog's fitness in tip top shape during their competition season. A fit dog is far less likely to sustain muscle injuries while competing in their favorite sport.
Let's face it... tossing toys into the pools while your dog bounces at excitement at your feet is just plain fun times. You don't need to have a goal to enjoy our pools. Grab a doggy friend and set up a play date for up to 3 dogs at a time. Your dog will love you for it, and you'll appreciate their soft fur after affect of swimming in our well maintained pool and facility. We do request that you brush excess fur and remove excessive dirt from your dog before arriving.

Confidence in a swimming Pool vs natural body water
A big blue pool with no beach and astroturf can seem odd to even the most confident dogs. This is 100% normal, and something we see almost daily. If you are unsure of your dog's confidence in a new environment, then a private swimming lesson might be just the thing you need to start your dog off on the right paw. In order to use the pool without an instructor, we do require a 10 minute assessment during your first visit to assure your dog can get in and out of the pool on their own, and swim independently.
