OUR POOL

Indoor Dog Swimming — The Smarter Choice for Littleborough

When Greater Manchester 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 35 minutes of driving time.

All Breeds Welcome

From tiny Chihuahuas to giant Great Danes, we cater for every breed with adjustable depths and gentle ramp entry.

Open 7 Days a Week

Morning, afternoon, and evening sessions available 7 days a week — flexible enough to fit around any schedule.

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.

YOUR QUESTIONS

What Littleborough Dog Owners Want to Know

"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 Littleborough.

"What if my dog is scared of water?"

We specialise in nervous swimmers. Our gentle ramp entry lets dogs walk in at their own pace, the warm water is inviting rather than shocking, and our experienced team has helped hundreds of first-timers. Most dogs are swimming happily by the end of session one.

"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.

"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.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Littleborough Dog Swimming — Your Questions Answered

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.

Can aggressive dogs swim?

Every session is completely private — your dog will never encounter other dogs. If your dog is reactive or anxious around other animals, our private sessions are the perfect solution.

What are your opening hours?

We're open 7 days a week, 9am–8pm. Evening and weekend slots are available so Littleborough dog owners can fit sessions around work and family.

Do you have changing facilities?

We have a drying area for dogs and space for you to change if you've been in the pool during an Owner In Pool session. We also have towels available.

Do you do gift vouchers for dog owners in Littleborough?

Yes. Vouchers are a popular present for Littleborough dog owners — birthdays, Christmas, or a new puppy in the family. Call 07359 881320 to arrange one.

Can I swim with my dog?

Absolutely! Our Owner In Pool sessions let you get in the water with your dog. It's a fantastic bonding experience. Just bring your swimwear and a towel — we supply everything else.

How wet will my car be on the way back to Littleborough?

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.
