Is it safe for dogs to swim?
Not all dogs are natural swimmers, so it's important to introduce them to water gradually and with supervision.
Be aware of the water conditions, such as currents, waves, and debris, that could pose a danger to your dog.
Make sure your dog is wearing a life jacket, especially if they are not a strong swimmer.
Rinse your dog off with fresh water after swimming in a pool or lake to remove any chlorine or bacteria.
Watch out for signs of heat exhaustion, such as excessive panting, drooling, and lethargy.
Provide plenty of shade and water for your dog to cool off and stay hydrated.
Lastly, be respectful of other beachgoers and follow any rules or regulations regarding dogs on the beach.
