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.

Cause the dog to breathe If the dog’s collar is tightly fastened, the dog’s trachea will be compressed, resulting in poor breathing. If the dog is more naughty and pulls you forward, it will further oppress the trachea, which is prone to danger. If the dog runs around with a collar all the time, and accidentally gets caught by other things, it may also cause suffocation.  2. Affect blood transport Dog collars should not be worn for a long time. Dogs have arteries and veins in their necks. Long-term wearing will affect blood circulation. Insufficient blood supply to the brain leads to slow cell metabolism, resulting in damage to the dog's body functions.  3. Cause muscle strain When ...

Benefits of dog leash 1: prevent the dog from losing! Losing a dog is a nightmare for all owners. Many people who lost their dogs cried out loud, complaining about the abhorrence of dog stealers. But when I look back and think about it, the owner’s failure to attach a leash to the dog is also an important factor in the tragedy. Throughout the many dog tragedies that have occurred in the past few years, most of them are caused by the lack of a leash. So we must realize the importance of dog leash. Because some dogs are naughty and playful, it’s not easy to listen to the owner’s commands outside.  Benefits of dog leash 2: prevent dogs from car accidents Many owners must have learned a lot.

If people think they are cute, they may be brought home on a whim. After I went back, I found that the dog’s personality and life characteristics were completely different. Therefore, be prepared before raising a dog. If you don't have a favorite breed, you can first understand the relevant breed before deciding which one to raise.  The British Kennel Association is the earliest kennel association in the world.
