How to train a short-haired fox terrier to swim? Pet dogs are born with the ability to swim. However, except for some hounds, many other domestic pet dogs do not dare to swim in the water because of fear. So how can we make it not afraid of water?

During training, the owner takes the short-haired fox terrier to the waterside of a general freshwater swimming place. First, he uses the dog's favorite play items on the shore to make the dog fully excited, and then throws the items to the water. The owner also Rush to the water and give the "swim" command to the short-haired fox terrier, asking the dog to pick it up. If the dog is afraid of going into the water at first and hesitates on the shore, the owner can encourage the dog and personally put the short-haired fox terrier into the water and accompany the dog to swim together. After a period of repeated training, the Short-haired Fox Terrier will gradually become accustomed to and like swimming. At this time, the dog can be taken to a seawater swimming pool to train it to adapt to seawater swimming.

The swimming postures of short-haired fox terrier dogs are basically the same, and they are all swimming in the dog paddle style. As long as the fear is overcome, the dog will soon learn to swim. Do it step by step and don't throw the dog into the sea suddenly.
