Safety Rules

All dogs must be SECURELY LEASHED at all times.
A dog off leash can lead to a number of safety problems (for themselves, other dogs and humans).

DO NOT APPROACH a dog without getting its handler's consent.
They may appear friendly; but we do not want to find out otherwise by a bad experience!!

CONSIDERATIONS FOR SWIM APPOINTMENTS:

All dogs must be THOROUGHLY BRUSHED.
We have a shedding blade for you to use if you are not able to brush at home. We ask you spend 20-30 minutes "brush time" prior to your appt. time. Keeping the pool as clean as possible helps keep your costs down, as pool maintenance is our greatest expense. We also ask that the dogs have been recently bathed.

A flea infested dog will be cancelled as the fleas will climb onto other swimmers. If there are any open wounds please discuss with the staff. Depending on the surgery we should be ready to swim as soon as the stitches are removed.

Please try to toilet your dog prior to your appointment!
Ask where it is appropriate onsite if you haven't been successful prior to arriving for your swim. We have doggie deposit bags should you need them! Be aware; dogs need to urinate quickly after their swim! Contrary to popular belief, they do not urinate in the pool.

POOP ALERT!!!!!!!
Each time a dog has a poop accident there is a $100 charge to decontaminate the pool water. We may have to cancel clients the rest of the scheduled day an incident happens. It is of utmost importance that a dog has pooped prior to their swim. (Make every effort to make this happen. If you know it is a problem consider skipping the morning feeding on swim day---one suggestion....for more ideas ask staff!)

All of your efforts are most appreciated!
