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.

What are the precationary measures in swimming?
1. Never swim alone. Always swim with a buddy or with a lifeguard present. 2. Don't practice breath-hold underwater swimming. Due to varying partial pressures of gases under deep water, it can cause shallow water blackout. You will not know when this happens, and you will go unconscious underwater. Having a lifeguard around is not a green light for breath hold swimming. They are a life guard, not a paramedic. Even if they were, there's no guarantee of revival if you pass out or drown. People have blacked out in pools before with a lifeguard present and still have died.
