Are dogs born to swim? Rumors! Three precautions for dog swimming!

When the weather is hot, many owners want to take their dogs to swim. However, not all dogs are suitable for swimming! The owner must pay attention to these three points when taking a dog swim! 


Dogs that are not suitable for swimming

Shortnose flat face dog


This type of dog is physiologically unsuitable for swimming, it is easy to be choked, and it is very likely to drown. In order to keep breathing smooth when swimming, they need to work hard to raise their heads, and their bodies will sink underwater, and swimming in the water will have some difficulties. 

Skeletal or muscular dogs



The body of this type of dog is relatively heavier than the head, and its special body structure determines that it is difficult for it to swim for a long time. Compared with their large bodies, their limbs are extremely short and stubby. It is difficult to keep their heads out of the water for a long time when swimming, making it extremely difficult for them to swim. 

Small short-legged dog


The short legs of the short-legged dog have become the biggest obstacle to swimming, and it is difficult to paddle when swimming. It needs to stroke frequently in the water, consumes energy quickly, and quickly exhausts its energy. 

Heavy-haired dog


The dog’s hair becomes very heavy after it gets into the water, which makes it more resistant to swimming. Hair that gets wet after entering the water can easily cover the face, hinder vision and cause breathing difficulties.
