Now you're focused, let's get serious:

The purpose of the "Swimming Paws" Swim Center is to provide a state of the art year round swimming facility for our dogs. The pool is 25' x 15', it is solar heated (with back up heat when there is no sun). The decking and stairs are safe slip proof materials. "Swimming Paws" provides scheduled evaluation of your dog's water abilities, swimming lessons if needed, and swim time.

Testimonials...

From Sally Waldie of Rehoboth Beach, Delaware...

Many thanks to Mr. Brown for the helpful suggestions he gave me the last 2 Rally Show & Go's. I had difficulty getting my little dachshund to do the "back up" & stand exercises.  With Mr. Brown's help, Mo was doing each within a very few tries! Just having my dog now  able to do those skills was well worth my trip to the center from Rehoboth, in addition to being able to practice with him on the rally advanced course.  Thank you so much for your kindness to take the extra time with me & my dog to solve those 2 problem areas in our training !!!
