RECOGNISE THE SIGNS?
What's Holding Your Burtonwood Dog Back?
Cold Weather Stops Play
When Burtonwood weather turns cold and wet, outdoor exercise drops off. Our heated indoor pool means fitness never stops.
Behavioural Problems at Home
Chewing, barking, digging — these are often signs of under-exercise. Dogs from Burtonwood who swim regularly are calmer and better behaved.
Stiff Joints & Slowing Down
Older dogs in Burtonwood often slow down because walks hurt their joints. Swimming gives them exercise without the pain.
Sound familiar? Swimming solves all of these — safely and enjoyably.

FOR BURTONWOOD DOGS
What a Typical Session Looks Like for a Burtonwood Dog
You arrive at our Bretherton site after a 25-minute drive from Burtonwood, park metres from the pool door, and we'll meet you and your dog at reception. New dogs get a short, calm introduction to the pool environment before anything else happens.
Once your dog is comfortable, we walk them down the gentle ramp into 28–32°C water. The full 30 minutes belongs to your dog — no shared sessions, no clock-watching. We finish with a towel-off, a debrief, and you're on your way.
Crystal-Clear Water
Our water is continuously filtered and treated to the highest standards. No mud, no algae, no hidden hazards.
Completely Private Sessions
No crowded pools, no stressed dogs — just your dog getting our full attention in a calm, controlled environment.
Free Parking On Site
Pull up right next to the pool entrance at Pompian Brow Farm. No parking charges, no long walks from the car.

COMMON CONCERNS
Your Questions, Answered
"What if my dog doesn't like it?"
In our experience, the vast majority of dogs take to our warm pool quickly. We never force dogs into the water — they enter at their own pace via a gentle ramp. The warm temperature makes it inviting rather than intimidating.
"Is one session enough to see results?"
Most dogs show visible improvement in mood and energy after just one session. For therapeutic or weight-loss goals, we recommend weekly sessions for 6–8 weeks to see transformative results.
"Can I get in the pool with my dog?"
Yes! Our Owner In Pool sessions let you swim alongside your dog. It's a bonding experience like no other. We provide everything you need — just bring your swimwear and a towel.
"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!
