With the springtime in full swing it is time to start thinking about where and when you will get your first taste of springtime swimming. So we made this collection paddling puppers to get you in the mood to jump headfirst into the paddling pool of life.

Spring is a wonderful time, flowers and blooming, animals are being born and it is finally warm enough to consider going for a swim in our favorite outdoor swimming setting. But like most things in life we need a little motivation to get ourselves in the headspace to get out there and take advantage of life's great moments.

Which is why we have enlisted the support of some of the internet's most water loving puppers to remind us of all the wonder that awaits us when we will finally muster up the courage to take the plunge for our first swim of the season. So all you got to do is sit back, relax, and enjoy this cute collection of swimming puppers. Just make sure you are wearing your swimming gear and have a towel ready if you happen to be seated in the splash zone.

  • Much like us hoomans, doggos also have a varied relationship to water. Some doggos love the stuff and will be found immersing themselves in any amount of water they can find. Whether it be a puddle, a stream or the ocean. And on the other side of things you have doggos who barely drink water they are so averse to it. But in the middle you find this pupper who is not a fan of getting wet, but is all for enjoying the benefits of floating upon the surface of a body of water. A rather central experience upon the scale of water loving doggos.
