City pools are now closed to the public for the year. On 9-5-11 this park is open to dogs only. Our first time here we could not find a place to park . Must have been 300+ dogs.The water was like bath water. There will be alot of dogs sleeping it off today.
|
HOW NICE.
|
Different, never seen this before, bet they were having fun.
|
I've heard of doggie parks but never doggie pools. What a great idea and the dogs must love it. My son's golden retreaver looked awfully hot this summer but he couldn't go into their pool as it has a vinyl liners.
|
That's neat. They did that at one of our community pools this year, too. I didn't go as my dog isn't overly fond of swimming. :)
|
That is so cool! Dogs that love the water must be very happy for this day!
|
I have never seen anything like that before. How fun! My dogs are hydrophobic...lol
|
They did this in Lynchburg, VA too......lol!
|
At our communuty pool, the last afternoon the pool is open is a dog swim. It's so funny watching the water loving dogs play. The poor dogs that don't like water stand in the baby pool looking all scared.
|
That is so cool...I bet Tink would like that, but she only needs 1foot of water to swim in...
|
That is a great idea.
|
they do that here too. i think it's great. the dogs certainly love it.
|
what a nice event
|
How great is that!
|
that's awesome!
|
My Goldens would have loved that!!
|
What a neat thing to do!!
|
Looks like the dogs are having a great time.
|
What a wonderful idea!!! Wish I could find something like that for my girls!! They love the water (unless it's coming from a hose)
|
How FUN!
|
God love em'. Looks like they found a bit of heaven on that day.
|
What a great idea! Since I live on the desert where the dogs get really HOT in the summer, I got the largest, deepest, most heavy duty hard plastic baby pool I could find.
It is filled May first and drained October first. To keep it clean I use a mini chlorine float designed for spas. When I drag that thing out in the spring, my dogs go wild with anticipation. They have spent countless hours rollicking around in that pool - which is now over ten years old and still holding it's own. My neighbors even send their dog over to join in the fun once in a while. After a "play date" day, the dogs sleep like the dead! One of the best "doggie" purchases I ever made! |
That is so fun!!
|
What a "cool" idea!
|
Must be pretty cool with everyone there wearing sweatshirts but the dogs are LOVING it!
|
What a great idea. Somebody using their heads and I know the dogs love it.
|
Looks like fun, but was the lifeguard for the dogs or the people? :)
|
Oh my gosh.....what a terrific idea! Bryn is a lab and adores the water when we visit up north. Down here we have gators only a block away so she is fenced in or on leash.
|
Even Fur Babies like to swim. Great fun for them :thumbup: :thumbup:
|
We have a plastic kiddie pool for our 2. They love it.
|
How cool is that :thumbup:
|
This is fabulous! Thanks for sharing.
|
Do they have one for cats?
|
Do dogs pee in the water? :lol:

That is way cool! My doggie wouldn't come within 5 feet of the bathtub, but he loved to jump right into the smelliest and vile of ponds, puddles and streams near at hand.
|
Happy day for the happy puppies and for their masters too. I am sure there were lots and lots of smiles. Love how doggies get along when they are off leash.
|
Talk about going to the dogs - I think that's a marvelous idea.
|
Our granddog, Allie, went to her local pool in Oklahoma on Monday also. Daughter said she loved it! They sell 150 tickets so it doesn't get overcrowded.
|
They did that in our local pool also. Didn't take our doggies, but I bet the others loved it.
