: I was just curious. My "sweet" Lucy loves the shower, and will jump right in with you. My question is...would she be ok swimming in a pool with chlorine? Would this hurt her skin? She is so silly..I took her to PetsMart the other day, and as I was paying for her bones at the register, my son was heading towards the exit..I noticed a fuzzy something hanging from her mouth...She had a fuzzy toy..and was heading towards the exit!! Lucy almost shoplifted in PetsMart!!! haha

Response:

There really is no way to know if Lucy will have an adverse reaction to the chlorine in a swimming pool. You can certainly minimize the risk by "suggesting" she not drink the water (LOL!) and by thoroughly rinsing (not shampooing) her after a swim.

So Lucy almost got busted for shoplifting... Well, THAT explains why my terriers were frisked before we left PetSmart! {giggle}
