swimming is equivalent to 20 minutes walking! So a 20-minute swim is a big
workout!

More about Fit Dogs & swimming
Founded by Tamara Zerener, Fit Dogs
has been tiring Toronto's dogs on land and in the water since 1997. She opened the
city's first dog pool at her 227 Broadview Ave. location.
Whether you want your dog to burn
energy, learn to swim, recuperate from injury or surgery, lose weight, or just
enjoy a memorable doggie swim laps with his friends, we've been here to help
make it happen.
Our Facility
At our indoor pond, your dog can do
laps, fetch, have hands-on support, or be tethered to the poolside to tread
water - whatever suits your goals and your dog's abilities and preferences.
The aboveground pool is 8 x 20 ft.
around, with a water depth of 3 ½ ft. It's heated to 30º C (87º F) to promote circulation and relax muscles.
A gentle, chemical-free, salt
chlorine generator keeps water clean and silky. Wide, rubber-topped ramps allow
for safe and gradual entry and exit. K9 life jackets of all sizes are on hand.
Afterward we use the poolside shower
and blow dryer to rinse and lightly dry off your dog so he goes back home smelling
sweet and ready to nap in your arms.
Who can benefit?
Just about any dog!
Swimming's a fantastic workout - strengthening heart and lungs, and building
muscle without stressing joints and ligaments. This is a safe, effective
complement to exercise on dry land.
It's especially
helpful for:
- arthritic dogs
- overweight dogs
- dogs with hip dysplasia
- seniors (some of the best
swimmers who otherwise struggle on land with aches and pains!)
- 3-legged dogs
- dogs preparing for or
recovering from surgery on their cruciate, hips, shoulders or back.
So much better for body and mind than confinement and inactivity!
