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!
Is Swimming Good For Dogs?
Yes, swimming can be very beneficial for dogs!
Swimming is a low-impact form of exercise that puts less stress on a dog’s joints compared to activities like running or jumping. It is especially beneficial for dogs with joint issues, arthritis, or other mobility limitations.
Swimming engages the muscles in a dog’s entire body, providing a comprehensive workout. It helps build strength, endurance, and cardiovascular fitness.
Swimming is an excellent activity for dogs that need to lose weight or maintain a healthy weight. The buoyancy of the water reduces the impact on their joints while still allowing them to burn calories.
Swimming provides mental stimulation for dogs, as they have to navigate through the water and use their instincts. It can also help alleviate boredom and provide a fun and engaging activity.
It’s important to keep in mind that not all dogs are natural swimmers, and some may require assistance or swimming aids such as life jackets. Additionally, it’s crucial to ensure the safety of your dog by supervising them closely around water and providing a controlled environment for swimming.

Final Thoughts
Again, I have only ever gone to the Doggie Beach Bash at NRH2O. You can view the videos of Colt at Doggie Beach Bash here.
We lost Colt in the spring of 2023, but we still plan on taking Hank. 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!
And don’t forget to check this post again next year. I will update the dates when I see that they’re posted.
Do you know of a dog swim days that I missed in the Dallas/Ft. Worth metroplex? Let me know in the comments below!
Cheers,
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!
Dog swim days in Texas?! Clearly I’m in the wrong state!
Aw, this is so sweet. I love taking our pup to places and this would be ideal.
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
Thanks so much for posting the updates for this year. really appreciate it!
Just updated the Wags and Waves with new dates! Thanks for the comment
Why are some dates marked through with a black line? Does that mean these dates are canceled?
Those are last year’s dates. I haven’t seen any new dates posted yet.
I’ve taken my chocolate lab to a couple of these and she absolutely loves it!
It really is so much fun for the pups!
thank you for aggregating this info! Ive used it 2 years now… it you could put them in more of a spreadsheet format that would be great! like Pool, address, Date, Time
Hi Joel, thank you very much for the comment! I have added a link to a spreadsheet format towards the top of this post. Let me know if you have any issues getting a copy of it.
