Throw them in, and if it is a big dog then then get him in a boat or on a peer and throw them off like that. It is a lot easier like that.

Help my dog can't swim help everyboy tells me that all dogs have an instint to know how to swimwell mine doesnt he literally sinks after about 10 seconds plus his peterfied of water please help?

That is not true. My dog was bred with dogs that loved to swim, and he hates it, we can only get him one inch in the water! Don't believe those people, they aren't correct. If you want him to swim, take him to a dog friendly area with water, or set up a baby pool in your backyard. Anywhere that has a little water and is quiet is a good way to take him out of his scaredness. If you hold him in the water (or try to, if he is a big dog) he should be much more comtfrable in the water, also try keeping his leash on. You can also take private swimming lessons for him. I hope this helps!

Can french bulldogs swim?

Most dogs can swim; some better than others. Some dogs love water and others don't, but from the time of wild dogs they can swim for self preservation. Some dogs are water dogs and it comes naturally, but since breeders have inter bred dogs not all dogs know how to swim instinctively and can be taught to swim.Not All dogs can swim. Bulldogs have a lot of trouble swimming because their bodies are so heavily built and its harder for them to breath because of their pushed in faces. English bulldogs can't swim but some french bulldogs can- it really depends on how fit your dog is and the way it is built. Just to be safe though I would always strap a life jacket on your dog when you're around water.Yes, French Bulldogs can swim, but the owner must constantly watch their dog. Because many Bulldog traits are a pushed in snout they can have problems breathing. If you take your French Bulldog for a swim keep them in more shallow water and don't expect them to fetch a stick or other toy too far off shore. Be vigilant while around your dog to be sure they don't have any problems in the water. Dogs can drown like people. To see a French Bulldog swim please go to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Ysrtp4ZbWcBulldogs of any type have difficulty breathing and in water that can become exasperated by water intake, as their snout is so close to the water level. A dog life jacket keeps a dog's head above water, gives buoyancy to prevent drowning and lessens water ingestion, which if salt water, is highly dangerous to dogs.


How do I make my 7 year old Labrador Retriever not to be afraid of water?

Throw it onto the lake, and it wil be forced to get accustomed to swim and wont fear water anymore. No, that is a good way to increase the ainmal's aversion to water. A little patience. Entice the dog into the shallow water with a toy or a treat. If you just stand or sit in the shallow water, the dog may come over to investigate.

What can not swim?

I guess a dead fish would not swim too well and neither would a shark that has been prey to shark fin hunters. I do not know of any living normal fish that can not swim. Fish can rest for a few seconds and not swim than but if a fish stops swimming than its vital organs stop working.Exactly.The dead fish can not swim...
