First swimming lesson
After discovering that Marquez can't swim (thread here), will sink straight to the bottom of the pool and actually needs to learn how to swim - we took him this morning for his first proper less.
Poor boy looked terrified at first but got the hang of it after a few laps. He definitely had a great workout and then was treated to wash, blow-dry and mani/pedi and ear clean afterwards
Will definitely keep up these lessons and try to get there at least 3 times a week before we leave for Europe.

Re: First swimming lesson
Thanks everyone - definitely a great workout and the guy handling him was really good to take him out for a short rest when he though he needed it. We're going back tomorrow and the centre owner has already said that one of her dogs is going to go swimming in there with him and told Angel to bring her swimmers so that she can go in there too

Great idea with Angel getting in there and helping out too Diane. Sounds like a proper day out

Re: First swimming lesson
Hopefully today he is more comfortable and relaxed in the water with Angel and the other dog in there with him
