Saving every little life in need of help

The first step is to choose a suitable site, such as a swimming pool or a river or stream, and the water should not be too deep.

The second step is to fasten the dog on a leash before the dog enters the water, which can facilitate the owner to control the direction of the dog and ensure the safety of the dog.

In the third step, you can let the dog practice in shallow water first, and then take it to swim in a deeper place after it adapts to swimming in the water. During the period, you can use toys to induce the dog and interact with the dog.

The fourth step is to teach the dog to swim in the correct way. The owner can support its body and guide the dog to paddle in the water with its legs.

The fifth step is to let the dog practice repeatedly, and then let it go after the dog has learned it. When the dog performs well, it is also necessary to reward it with small snacks, which will help it learn to swim faster.
Precautions for swimming with soil dogs:

1. Don’t worry if the dog hasn’t learned it for a long time. Be patient. You can’t force it to learn all the time. You should relax and rest properly to avoid rebellious psychology and resistance to swimming.
2. After the dog swims, dry the water with a towel in time, or dry it with a hair dryer to prevent the dog from catching a cold or eczema.
3. After returning home, you should give the dog a bath again, and observe whether the dog is in a bad mood or other physical discomfort. If you have symptoms of discomfort, you need to seek medical treatment in time.
4. When the dog is sick, the resistance is weak at this time, so it must not be taken to swim, so as not to aggravate the condition.
