When the weather starts to get warmer your Boxer may need additional access to water to stay cool and hydrated. Sometimes Boxers and other canine breeds will stop by the swimming pool for a quick drink. This is not recommended. If possible, keep your pool closed off and inaccessible for your Boxer.  Your vet can tell you that in most cases the amount of chlorine in a well maintained swimming pool is fairly low. However, if you’re not the one maintaining the pool do not assume the levels are low. Chlorinated water in general is not the best choice for animal or human. You should try and discourage your dog from drinking the pool water. If he does swallow pool water, just give your vet a call and find out if there’s anything you need to do. For more information about the dangers of pool water for your pup, call your vet Frisco, TX.
