A wag of the tail. A doggie grin.
A SPLASH!
Welcome to getting wet, fun with your four footed pal, and
if you love a bit of damp work, great titles to earn from a variety of canine groups.
Swimming is wonderful for man's best friend and
can work wonders on the arthritic, and the chubby "need exercise" dog. As well as the outdoorsy soul that is up for a romp
or a quick game of fetch.
BENEFITS OF SWIMMING ♦ Provides non-weight-bearing exercise for dogs with physical limitations that prevent them from walking or running, including weakness of the limbs due to surgery or injury, arthritis, and other joint-related problems. ♦ Improves range of motion, muscular strength, and cardio-respiratory endurance. ♦ Helps promote weight loss for dogs that are unable to take outdoor walks for the length of time needed to provide adequate weight-loss benefits. ♦ Provides a fun activity for the dog that loves being in the water and enjoys swimming.  Our Water Training Camp Twice a year we offer a fun four week course in which "water rescue" skills are taught, whether for competition or fun, consider joining us for a splashing good time. REQUIREMENTS FOR PARTICIPATION Dogs must be current on all vaccinations. Dog-aggressive and/or people aggressive dogs will not be allowed to participate. We reserve the right to refuse any dog that may be ill or uncomforatble in the water environment. |
