[nagdu] Guide Dogs in Condo swimming pools.

[Nicole Torcolini]

So, you want your dog in the pool with you? Out of curiosity , why are you
not comfortable swimming without him? Specifically, what tasks do you expect
him to perform, if any, while in the pool? Although you could probably train
him to do something, I am guessing that his first thoughts while in the pool
are going to be that it is play time.

I recently attended a continuing education class to maintain my LCAM
license. During the class the question came up about Guide Dogs in condo
settings and access to swimming pools.

The answer was that in most cases Guide Dogs should be thought of as being
invisible as they were allowed anywhere their owner was.

I know that my Guide Dog has stayed in my hospital room with me on several
occasions and is allowed anywhere but the OR.

I would love to swim in our condo pool but only with my dog as I don't feel
comfortable without him.

Do you have any information in this regard? I have tried to Google it for an
answer, and it may be my limited computer skills but I can't find an answer.

Do have any info on this?
