I have 3 dogs. The lab loves to swim, naturally. My bully seems to love the water but only if it's at the lake or beach where she can just walk in. When she is at a pool she runs around it like she wants to get in but she refuses to get in. If you try to coax her in she panics. She does have trouble with her ears and water only makes it worse so I'm not sure if that is a reason. I've showed her the steps numerous times at my friends pool but she just refuses to get in. Sometimes she will put her front paws in but that's it.When we are at the beach she runs right in, will swim out to get her ball and splash around. Bless her heart though, she can barely swim. She sinks like a rock. She will be paddling her heart out and getting lower and lower in the water. They say pitbulls are too dense and don't float well. Well my dog is a poster child for not floating well.
