Swim 4 Paws
The Largest Canine Swimming Pool in the UK
Welcoming all dogs great and small - from giant breeds to the smallest pet dogs. We encourage confidence and skill in a safe, enriching environment. We have the largest pool of its kind in the whole of the UK.
Many breeds have inherited
distinctive water work skills
Our sessions build on your dog's natural instincts and abilities through exercises like jumping in and out of the water from shore or boat, retrieving objects from the water, rescuing people from water, pulling boats, leading ropes, recovering fishing nets etc. Some dogs even dive deep underwater to recover items from the 'seabed'!
Physical and mental fulfilment
Swimming can be mentally and physically satisfying for your dog, releasing endorphins as a natural by-product. A great sleep for your dog (and you!) is pretty much guaranteed after your session - in addition to tons of fun.
The swimming pool
The largest of its kind in the UK - our pool is over 20 metres long, steadily increasing in depth from 45cm to 1.8m. Young or hesitant dogs are gently introduced to shallow water in the integral puppy pool area, graduating to take full advantage of the warm water which is chlorine and bromine free - producing a healthy, safe and controlled environment. Unique water purification and filtration systems maintain the water cleanliness and clarity and to prevent any risk of dogs overheating, the water is maintained at a temperature of between 20-23 degrees at all times.
