Remember when you were a kid and you had to take a shower
before you went in the city pool? At our park pool growing up we had to walk
through this series of showers but if you danced around enough you could avoid
the water. Nowadays, you don’t have to take showers before you go in the city
pools, I don’t think. Maybe it’s because of the stronger chemicals they have in
the pools now.
I saw recently in our newspaper that there is going to be a
time set aside for bringing your dog to our pool for a swim. No humans allowed.
Just dogs. Wait. What? Are these dogs “pool trained”? Does such training exist?
Are the pool chemicals strong enough to kill fleas? Are they going to drain and scrub down the pool afterward like you and I do our tubs after the dog has a bath?
Oh, and this dog swim is free. Unbelievable! Humans pay like
$9 to swim there. The city had better not be paying for lifeguards for this event. Call me cheap, but I am OK with a couple of
the better swimming dogs “manning” the lifeguard chairs.
