Because public Swimming Pools are run as a business. In business, the owner and staff have a 'duty of care' to ensure the safety of everyone on the premises.

The life-guards are there to rescue anyone who gets into difficulties while using the facility.

Well, if you go to the Swimming Pool on Panfu and get into it, all you do is walk on it. But, if you have the swimsuit, you can swim in the Swimming Pool when you get into it! Just talk to the Life Guard at the Swimming Pool and he'll ask you to find the parts for the Swimming Suit, so you can swim! Hope I've helped :).


Is it safe for dogs to swim in a swimming pool?

Well, MY dog goes swimming all the time. So do all my friends' dogs. If your dog is really little though, I wouldn't recommend it. My dog is six pounds. The safe way to let any dog swim in any water is with a dog life jacket on and under supervision. Swimming pools do however, present danger to dogs, as does any water but swimming pools are dangerous to dogs because unless there is a special ramp for them to get in and out alone (or shallow end with access to dry land) they should not ever be left alone with access to the pool even with a dog life jacket to protect them. Too many dogs die by drowning every year, many of them in swimming pools and certainly if they had been wearing a dog life vest, they would probably still be with us.
