WHY DOGS NEED MORE
Sound Familiar? Greenmount Dogs Deserve Better
Separation Anxiety
Dogs who don't burn enough energy develop anxiety. A 30-minute swim leaves dogs calm, content, and ready to relax at home.
Weight Creeping Up
Over half of UK dogs are overweight. If your dog's waistline has disappeared, swimming burns 5x more calories than walking — with zero joint impact.
Nowhere Safe to Swim
Rivers and lakes near Greenmount can be dangerous — strong currents, blue-green algae, hidden debris. Your dog deserves a safe, controlled environment.
Expensive vet bills and medication only manage symptoms. Swimming addresses the root cause.

THE DIFFERENCE
Why Greenmount Owners Drive Past Other Pools to Reach Us
There are larger pools elsewhere in Greater Manchester, and some that are closer to certain parts of Greenmount. What brings owners to Bretherton is the combination — purpose-built for dogs, properly heated, genuinely private, and run by people who know each regular's dog by name.
Once you've experienced a fully private, fully focused 30-minute session, shared or rushed alternatives feel like a step backwards. That's the most common piece of feedback we get from Greenmount dog owners who tried elsewhere first.

WE HEAR YOU
What to Know Before Your First Visit From Greenmount

"What ages of dog do you accept?"
From 12-week-old puppies (after second vaccination) to senior dogs of any age. We adjust every session to your dog's ability. Some of our most enthusiastic swimmers are well into their teens!
"Do you offer discounts for regular swimmers from Greenmount?"
Yes — we offer multi-session packages at a discount for regular swimmers. Ask about our package deals when you book. Many Greenmount dog owners find monthly packages the best value.

WHAT DOG OWNERS SAY
Real Greater Manchester Owners, Real Results
"Tried everything for our anxious collie — training, medication, behaviourists. Swimming has been the most effective thing we've done. She's a different dog after each session."
Natalie M.
Border Collie, 3 years
"Brilliant for our working cocker who does agility. The swimming keeps her fit, builds strength in muscle groups that agility alone doesn't work, and she adores it."
James H.
Working Cocker Spaniel, 4 years
"After our dog's spinal surgery, this pool was recommended by our vet. The Swim Coach sessions were exactly what she needed — controlled, gentle, and effective."
Victoria L.
Dachshund, 8 years
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Your Greenmount Swimming Questions, Answered
Is the pool chlorinated?
We use a professional water treatment system that keeps the water crystal-clear and hygienic without harsh chemical smells. Our system is far gentler on dogs' skin and eyes than traditional chlorinated pools.
Do Greater Manchester vets recommend your pool?
Yes — veterinary practices across Greater Manchester refer patients to us regularly for post-surgery rehabilitation, arthritis management, and weight loss. We're happy to work alongside your vet to support your dog's health.
Is there anything to do near the pool while we're in Greenmount?
We're rurally placed near Bury, with quiet lanes and farmland walks within a few minutes. Some owners turn a session into a half-day out with their dog.
What happens during the first session?
We'll do a quick health chat about your dog's breed, age, and any conditions. Then we introduce them to the pool gradually via the ramp. First-timers get extra settling-in time. Most dogs are swimming happily within minutes.
Do you do gift vouchers for dog owners in Greenmount?
Yes. Vouchers are a popular present for Greenmount dog owners — birthdays, Christmas, or a new puppy in the family. Call 07359 881320 to arrange one.
How long is each swimming session?
Sessions are 30 minutes of pool time. We recommend arriving 10 minutes early for your first visit so we can complete a quick health assessment.
What are your opening hours?
We're open 7 days a week, 9am–8pm. Evening and weekend slots are available so Greenmount dog owners can fit sessions around work and family.
