OUR POOL
The Swimming Pool Built Specifically for Dogs Near Over Kellet
This isn't a converted human pool or a farmer's pond — our facility was purpose-built for canine swimming. The gentle ramp entry lets dogs walk into the water at their own pace. The water is continuously filtered, treated, and heated to the perfect therapeutic temperature.
Whether you're in Over Kellet or anywhere in Lancashire, you won't find a more professional, hygienic, or dog-friendly swimming environment. That's why vets recommend us, dog walkers trust us, and owners from across the region keep coming back.
Gentle Ramp Entry
Dogs enter via a gradual ramp — no jumping required. Perfect for nervous first-timers and dogs with mobility issues.
Open 7 Days a Week
Morning, afternoon, and evening sessions available 7 days a week — flexible enough to fit around any schedule.
Full-Body Workout
Swimming engages every major muscle group simultaneously. 30 minutes in the pool equals 90 minutes of walking.

STRAIGHT ANSWERS
Concerns? Let Us Put Your Mind at Rest
"Is it suitable for rescue dogs?"
We've helped dozens of rescue dogs build water confidence. Our private, calm environment is ideal for dogs who may be nervous or have unknown histories. We go at their pace, with patience and kindness.
"Is it really better than outdoor swimming?"
Night and day. Our pool is heated to 28–32°C, filtered and treated for hygiene, has no currents or hidden hazards, and is available all year round regardless of weather. Plus it's completely private — no other dogs to stress yours.
"Is the water clean and safe?"
Our water is continuously filtered and treated to exceed hygiene standards. It's crystal-clear at all times — far cleaner and safer than any river, lake, or outdoor dog pool you'll find near Over Kellet.
"What if my dog can't swim at all?"
Many dogs who visit us have never swum before — that's perfectly fine. We use life jackets, gradual ramp entry, and gentle encouragement. Swimming is a natural instinct for most dogs; they just need the right introduction.

"We drive from Over Kellet every week and it's worth every minute. Our spaniel absolutely loves the warm water and sleeps all evening afterwards!"
Sarah T.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Dog Swimming Near Over Kellet — FAQs
Can my dog swim if they've been neutered recently?
We recommend waiting at least 14 days after suture removal and getting the all-clear from your vet before swimming. The wound must be fully healed before entering the pool.
Will my dog be the only one in the pool?
Yes. Every session is fully private. Your Over Kellet dog never meets another dog during their swim, which is why we're a popular choice for reactive or anxious dogs.
Can I buy a package of sessions?
Yes — we offer multi-session packages at a discount. Ask us when you book or call 07359 881320 for current offers. Regular swimmers from Over Kellet often find packages the best value.
What happens if my dog doesn't want to swim?
No dog is ever forced into the water. If your dog isn't ready, we let them explore poolside and build confidence at their own pace. Most dogs swim happily within their first or second visit.
What should I bring for my dog's first swim?
Just your dog and a towel — we supply everything else including life jackets and toys. If you're joining in an Owner In Pool session, bring swimwear too. We have a drying area on site.
Is there anything to do near the pool while we're in Over Kellet?
We're rurally placed near Lancaster, with quiet lanes and farmland walks within a few minutes. Some owners turn a session into a half-day out with their dog.
What's the best time of day to swim from Over Kellet?
Quietest slots tend to be weekday mornings. Evenings and weekends book up fastest — Over Kellet owners working 9-to-5 should book 1-2 weeks ahead for those.
