Dog Paddle Beach — Attraction in Harlem Township

This was our lab pup's first time swimming. She was tentative at first, wearing the life jacket provided, but after two times across the pool after a tennis ball, the jacket was clearly not needed. The instructor (Stacy) was laser-focused on making sure our girl was safe and secure, that she enjoyed the experience. I was quite entertained by Stacy's ongoing conversation with our pooch, explaining to her how to improve her swimming (and landing) techniques. As comical as it was, "Chloe" did respond and made significant improvement during the half-hour swim. And thirty minutes was enough. Stacy kept watching Chloe for signs of fatigue, made her rest several times to catch her breath. Chloe was immediately into retrieving the tennis ball and was actually leaping into the water from the platform in anticipation of the ball being thrown each time. She was game! When the half-hour concluded, she wanted more, but was panting enough to show that she'd gotten quite a workout. What a fantastic place! Stacy and her sister, Michelle, are two of the nicest people you'll ever meet, are very professional and knowledgeable, and never lose their focus on the safety of the dog. The facility is clean, the water is well-maintained and clean enough for the owners to be in while instructing the dog. Our lab just celebrated her first birthday (at 85 pounds) and this was her birthday present from Mom and Dad. The dog who was to follow our session was a six-month-old Corgi puppy and I wish we'd hung around to watch. Towels are provided as well as a bathing facility. Dog Paddle Beach will be a regular event for us going forward as the benefit to our dog was undeniable. That my wife and I had a blast was just a bonus. Great job ladies! I hope your business thrives and grows. You deserve it! We'll...

My Pomeranian was recently diagnosed with luxating patella in both knees so I brought him here tonight for his first session to help build his joints and muscles in his legs! He was nervous at first but he did amazing for his first time ever swimming! The instructor was amazing with him and was so sweet. The water and pool were very clean! All of that swimming knocked him right out as soon as we got home! 😂 I’m glad to say we will be going...

We were saying goodbye to our elderly dog that used to love swimming, at a time of year that was too cold to take him outside. Husband got the smart idea to look around to see if there was a spot indoors that we could let him have one more moment in the water. Dog Paddle Beach offers a safe, warm, friendly one-on-one environment for dogs to take a swim. We will miss our dear companion but we are grateful for the last...
