Not all dogs can swim. Some bulldogs, greyhounds and Italian greyhounds and whippets cannot swim. Bulldogs have problems due to their body mass vs their little legs. Greyhound breeds or other sight-hound breeds often don't have enough body fat for buoyancy in addition to their long slender legs being a problem for keeping them afloat.

Please, do not assume every dog can swim. It simply isn't true.

Wolves are actually very good swimmers when they have to be. They do not get into the water for fun, but they will swim to catch prey or avoid danger.
