So, I was hoping someone here would know of a place she can go swimming safely. Thanks for your help.
IMHO, there are NO safe places for dog to swim unless it is the ocean. There is a tiny pond in back of our house in TV ... no gators for six years ... and then one day there appears a gator. Please don't take any chances with your pet.
