No Social Swimming Options

OUR POOL

Indoor Dog Swimming — The Smarter Choice for Clayton-le-Woods

When Lancashire weather turns cold and wet — which, let's be honest, happens often — outdoor exercise drops off. Dogs get bored, gain weight, and develop behavioural problems. Our heated indoor pool means your dog's exercise routine never misses a beat, regardless of the forecast.

Every session is private, so your dog gets our full attention without the stress of other dogs. We provide life jackets, toys, and expert supervision. You just bring your dog, a towel, and 15 minutes of driving time.

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.

Gentle Ramp Entry

Dogs enter via a gradual ramp — no jumping required. Perfect for nervous first-timers and dogs with mobility issues.

Completely Private Sessions

No crowded pools, no stressed dogs — just your dog getting our full attention in a calm, controlled environment.

From Clayton-le-Woods to Bretherton in 15 Minutes

Free parking right at the pool door. 30 minutes of private, heated, supervised swimming. £35.

YOUR QUESTIONS

What Clayton-le-Woods Dog Owners Want to Know

"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 my dog swim if they're on medication?"

Usually yes — but always mention any medication when booking. Some medications may need timing adjustments around swimming. We'll check with you and advise accordingly.

"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 Clayton-le-Woods.

"What happens if my dog has an accident in the pool?"

It happens and it's not a problem! Our filtration system handles it quickly and we're well prepared. We ask that dogs are walked before sessions and we recommend not feeding them within 2 hours of swimming.

WHAT DOG OWNERS SAY

Owners From Across Lancashire on Why It Works

"Our overweight beagle has lost 3kg since starting fortnightly swims. The Weighty Woofers programme is brilliant — and it's only 15 minutes from Chorley town centre."

Dave R.

Beagle, 5 years · Chorley

"Buckshaw Village to the pool is a doddle. Both our spaniels are obsessed with swim day — they start whining when they recognise the route!"

Emma L.

Two Cockers, 3 & 4 years · Buckshaw Village

"We bring our elderly collie from Adlington. She can barely walk a mile now but swims happily for 30 minutes. It keeps her going."

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Practical Answers for Clayton-le-Woods Dog Owners

Is the pool suitable for puppies from Clayton-le-Woods?

Yes! We accept puppies from 12 weeks old, after their second vaccination. Our gentle ramp entry and warm water make it the perfect environment for a puppy's first swim.

Will my dog be the only one in the pool?

Yes. Every session is fully private. Your Clayton-le-Woods dog never meets another dog during their swim, which is why we're a popular choice for reactive or anxious dogs.

Do I need to book in advance?

Yes — sessions are by appointment only to ensure every dog gets private pool time. We recommend booking at least a few days ahead, especially for weekend sessions. Call 07359 881320 or use our online form.

Do you have experience with large breeds?

We regularly swim Great Danes, Newfoundlands, Irish Wolfhounds, and other giant breeds. Our pool is designed to accommodate dogs of all sizes with plenty of room to move.

Do I need a vet referral?

No referral is needed for general swimming sessions. However, if your dog has a specific medical condition, we recommend consulting your vet first. Many vets across Lancashire actively refer to us.

Is the pool available for birthday parties or special occasions?

We love celebrating milestones! Contact us about special occasion bookings. Many Clayton-le-Woods dog owners book celebration swims for birthdays or adoption anniversaries.

How deep is the pool?

Our pool has adjustable depths to suit every size of dog, from toy breeds to giant breeds. Dogs enter via a gradual ramp, so they're always in control of how deep they go.
