DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?
Why Walks Alone Aren't Enough for Crosby Dogs
Nervous Around Water
Many dogs in Merseyside have never been introduced to water properly. Our gentle approach builds lifelong water confidence.
Behavioural Problems at Home
Chewing, barking, digging — these are often signs of under-exercise. Dogs from Crosby who swim regularly are calmer and better behaved.
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.
Sound familiar? Swimming solves all of these — safely and enjoyably.

WHY DOG OWNERS VISIT US
What Crosby Dog Owners Come to Us For
Better Sleep and Behaviour
A 30-minute swim leaves dogs mentally and physically satisfied. Owners report better behaviour, better sleep, and a calmer home.
Breed-Specific Exercise
Water breeds get the swimming they were designed for. Non-swimmers get the support and guidance to enjoy it safely.
Safe Exercise in Bad Weather
When Merseyside weather ruins outdoor plans, our heated indoor pool keeps your dog's exercise routine on track year-round.
Holiday Preparation
Taking your dog to the coast? Pool-confident dogs handle beaches and boats much better. Build water skills before you travel.
Year-Round Fitness Routine
Unlike outdoor exercise that drops off in winter, swimming keeps your dog's fitness consistent through every season.

We're not a grooming salon that happens to have a pool. We're specialist dog swimming professionals. Every aspect of our facility — the water temperature, the ramp entry, the filtration, the session structure — is optimised for your dog's health and enjoyment.

GOOD TO KNOW
Concerns? Let Us Put Your Mind at Rest
"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!
"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.
"How much does it cost?"
Sessions start from just £35 for Owner In Pool and Group Classes, and £40 for Swim Coach and Weighty Woofers. Compare that to a vet hydrotherapy session at £50–80+ and you're getting outstanding value.
"How does this compare to a vet hydrotherapy centre?"
Our sessions are £35-40 compared to £50-80+ at vet hydrotherapy centres. Our pool is the same quality — heated, filtered, purpose-built. For dogs needing rehabilitation, we're happy to work alongside your vet.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Practical Answers for Crosby Dog Owners
How warm is the pool?
Our pool is heated to between 28°C and 32°C — warmer than most human swimming pools. This temperature is ideal for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors.
Can I watch my dog swim?
Absolutely. You can watch from poolside during Swim Coach sessions, or jump in yourself during Owner In Pool sessions. Many Crosby owners love watching their dog's progress from week to week.
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 Crosby often find packages the best value.
How do regular swimmers from Crosby schedule their visits?
Most regular swimmers from Crosby book a standing weekly or fortnightly slot. This ensures they get their preferred day and time. We're flexible with rescheduling when life gets in the way.
How wet will my car be on the way back to Crosby?
Hardly at all. We have a dedicated drying area on site and most dogs are touch-dry before they leave. Bring a towel for the back seat just in case.
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.
Do I need to bring anything for my dog's swim?
Just your dog and a towel! We provide life jackets, toys, and everything else needed. We also have a drying area on site so your dog can dry off before the journey home to Crosby.
