There are two types of dogs when it comes to water and going for a swim. Some dogs LOVE water and swimming, and others don’t want anything to do with it. How we teach swimming applies to both kinds of dogs and is different from what you might see others do. Dogs who naturally love to swim can be a challenge, as can dogs who hate water. Help is at hand with my 5 steps for water success for both types of dogs.

 

In the episode you'll hear:

 

• Why a dog loving water and swimming can be problematic for you and your dog.
• The reason control is essential for swimming and your dog’s safety.
• How helping your dog like water is helping them be comfortable with life skills.
