I am always looking for fun things to do in DFW with my dogs. And dog swim days are something I look forward to at the end of summer!
I have these in date order below, but there’s a dog swim day almost every weekend starting in August. I’ve been to NRH2O two times and my dog has such a good time! I can’t wait to take my new puppy, Hank, this year.

Final Thoughts
Again, I have only ever gone to the Doggie Beach Bash at NRH2O before. You can view the videos of Colt at Doggie Beach Bash here. It’s a good size water park and the wave pool is top notch. Some of the venues seem a little smaller, but should be fun for your pups!
Do you know of a dog swim day that I missed in the Dallas/Ft. Worth metroplex? Let me know in the comments below!
XOXO,
Katie

This looks like so much for the dogs! I have never taken our dogs swimming so not sure if they would like this.
What a fun place to go with the pup. Even if you didn’t have a dog it would be fun.
some events allow spectators! If you love dogs, but don’t have one, I would choose that! haha
Never heard of this, but it looks like a great place for your dog to have some summer fun. Especially with this heat!
I love this! That is so great that they have this for dogs. I wish we had this around where I live.
I bet these dogs enjoyed the water. What a fun event for the dog owners.
I live in Fort Worth but we haven’t ever gone to the dogs swimming events. I’m not sure how my dogs will do. I have a Yorkie and boxer mix. She would probably like it but she can get a bit hyper around other dogs.
My older dog is super loud, but loves the adventure!
Oookay we dont have this kind of pool play in my state! But thats pretty cool you can share the fun with the pups’
Wow! This looks like a really wonderful place for dogs! I know my dog would definitely love to be there!
Aw, this is so sweet. I love taking our pup to places and this would be ideal.
Dog swim days in Texas?! Clearly I’m in the wrong state!
What a great idea! I know so many dogs that love to swim!
This place is so fun for the puppies. I would love to take them here. Thank you for sharing.
My oldest son and his then-girlfriend used to take their dog everywhere, even kayaking, lolol. They’d have loved this kind of pooch swim for sure.
This sure looks like a lot of fun to take your dog too! Shame they don’t have it where I live
