Does your four-legged friend love to cool off in the water? 🐕

Help keep your dog and our waterways healthy with these top tips:

🐾 Use designated dog dips only - these have been chosen for the safety of your pup and the health of the pond, lake, river or stream

🐾 Do not let your dog go swimming for several days after you have applied flea treatment - the pesticides used in flea treatments can kill freshwater invertebrates.

🐾 Do not let your dog climb in and out of streams and ponds repeatedly, especially where the banks are steep and soil erosion is likely.

🐾 Give your dog a good rinse or bath after swimming and before entering other watercourses, to help prevent the spread of diseases between watercourses.
