I take Chloe in the pool with me sometimes when I get in. Me and my friends get in a triangle about 2 ft apart and let her swim to each of us. The other day i put her on my body board and let her float around on it (i was holding the board of course because it was the first tiem she was in all year) and she jumped off to go swimming. She is a good little swimmer. Better than my aunts dog who is a long legged very sportive dog. She loves the water... except when its tubby time.
