Water games, beachcombing, and boating can be great summer fun while pool alarm systems, flotation devices, and other security measures keep your family and pets safe.
A cool dip in the swimming pool under a hot summer sun is definitely one of life’s greatest pleasures. There’s nothing more refreshing and fun for humans and dogs alike than a splash in the water when temperatures soar. But while water games can be fun, we must remember water safety rules to prevent accidents.
Kiddie pools, and even sprinklers, can be a safer method of water play for older dogs or breeds that do not swim well. Simply wading or splashing provides cool fun but even these should be supervised. Remember to keep kiddie pools clean to prevent mosquito and toxic algae growth.
Keep these water safety precautions in mind and enjoy those lazy, hazy days of summer!
