YORKIES SHOULD BE TREATED THE SAME AS A TWO YEAR OLD AROUND A SWIMMING POOL. THEY SHOULD BE SUPERVISED AT ALL TIMES!!!!.. |
This statement is soo important!! Lola loves the water so much she will and has on many occasions jumped in the pool on her own. My little one (Lea) is sensitive to the chlorine however if I rinse her when she gets out her skin does not get irritated. We live at the beach and the girls have become so used to the water and are great swimmers but I never look away for even a second. When we visit friends who have a built in pool the girls spend most of their day in life jackets.
Just make sure your baby can tolorate the chlorine.
