WHAT OWNERS NOTICE
How heat-sensitive dogs tends to show up
WHAT IT IS
Heat-Sensitive Dogs in plain English
Dogs who cannot exercise safely in warm weather — heavy-coated northern breeds, overweight dogs, flat-faced breeds and older dogs with poor heat tolerance.
HOW IT WORKS
In the pool with heat-sensitive dogs
WHY THE POOL HELPS
Heat-Sensitive Dogs and warm water
An indoor, temperature-controlled pool means summer does not have to mean an unfit dog. Water carries heat away from the body while the dog works.
YOUR FIRST VISIT
A first heat-sensitive dogs swim
Short intervals with rests at the side, watching breathing and recovery rather than counting lengths.
RECOMMENDED SESSION
Swim Coach for heat-sensitive dogs
Weekly through the summer months keeps condition from slipping.
For heat-sensitive dogs the win is maintaining fitness through summer instead of losing it.
Before you book
Any history of heatstroke or collapse must be discussed with your vet before booking, and told to us when you book.
QUESTIONS WE GET ASKED
Heat-Sensitive Dogs: questions
Is the pool indoors?
Yes — an indoor heated pool, so weather never cancels a session.
Is warm water sensible for a dog that overheats?
The water is well below body temperature, so it still draws heat away during effort. We keep sessions short and rest often regardless.
