Dog Paddle Beach

Dog Paddle Beach A canine swimming facility Dog Paddle Beach is a canine swimming facility. It is a 21' round swimming pool which is inside so we swim all year round.

The heated pool is 54" deep and the 90 degree water provides a relaxing comfortable environment. There is a self serve wash and dry station to use after swimming.

Humans,
The pool is CLOSED Christmas Eve & Christmas Day because we are BUSY.
(Eating treats. Judging you.)

We have standing appointments available upon request. This is by far the most popular type of appointment we offer. Having a standing appointment guarantees your preferred time slot is available every week, you only need to let us know if you need to cancel a session.
This setup accommodates dogs that are learning to swim, dogs that are swimming for physical rehabilitation or dogs that enjoy weekly swim sessions. It is also ideal for owners who want to the same appointment time every week. With a standing appointment, your dog benefits from routine and regular swim sessions, while you enjoy an stress-free scheduling experience. Let us help you simply your week.

We are bracing for our first really cold temps of the season. It looks like Saturday and Sunday have highs forecast in the single digits and lows below zero. If you are coming to swim this weekend, and many of you are, please take precautions to make sure your dog is safe and warm.
Bundle them up in a coat or blanket,
spend extra time drying them before you leave and minimize any time outdoors at home until they are completely dry.
We do have a few appointments available on Friday before the cold front, with openings at 3pm, 3:30pm, 4:30pm and 6pm to choose from.

A winter storm with heavy snow is on the way. For now, the pool will be open all weekend. If that changes, we’ll text those on the schedule and share an update on Facebook.

We’ll close the pool if we determine it’s unsafe for our team to travel. Even if the pool is open, you don’t need to come if conditions are dangerous where you are. Please keep an eye on the weather and choose what’s best for you and your dog. If you do decide to cancel, please give us as much notice as possible.

How long should I give it to see if my dog likes swimming?

It can take several sessions for your dog to get comfortable with swimming but the average is 3-4 sessions. At first, your dog may seem nervous, scared or may just not want to move. They may be in bad position which causes a lot of splashing. We will work with them to help them gain confidence in the water and enjoy swimming.

Most dogs will turn it into a game of fetch. Even dogs that don’t play fetch on land often start playing fetch in the pool. Soon they may learn they have a natural talent for swimming and really enjoy their swim time.

We often get asked if we're open year-round. Absolutely! Our indoor pool allows us to operate all year providing a consistent and welcoming space for you and your dog to stay active.

Our pool water is kept between 88-92 degrees. This helps dogs who are recovering from an injury or dealing with arthritis. (It’s nice for us, too.)
