Does anyone take their yorkies swimming? I need some pointers on how to play with Saffron in the pool. I took her in yesterday & today cause she seemed so hot. Think she liked it. (Well, she didn't fuss or anything & seemed relaxed for the most part) I held her to my chest & walk-floated around. Then I let her go (with my hands under her but not touching) & let her swim about 1 foot to the stairs.
My pool is above ground so there's no shallow end...not that she'd be tall enough for it if I did have one. I use Bacquacil (sp) instead of chlorine, which I find much gentler. Her hair felt like it had conditioner on it when it dried. I also have a life jacket for her. Thought I could use it when we play alittle "catch the floaty ball". Tried it out but she didn't seem overly keen on it. Think I'll have to keep getting her used to it.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
Marty
