Is a dog swimming in your pool OK for your pool?
Many people allow their pets to swim in their backyard pools. Your dog will introduce certain contaminants into your pool, so you'll need to ensure that your pool water is sanitized and balanced before and after your dog takes a dip. Do a chlorine test to ensure that you have the proper free available chlorine levels in your pool water. Follow up with a water balance test to ensure that pH, calcium hardness, and total alkalinity are within the proper ranges. If your pool water is out of balance, your sanitizer won't work properly. If you have to make adjustments to your pool water balance or to your chlorine levels, retest afterwards. ** The only thing I'd add is that I wouldn't recommend allowing your dog to swim in a vinyl liner pool. I wouldn't want to risk puncturing the liner.
