Chloe loves water... she is a little suspicious when first seeing a lake, pond.... but then she just loves it. She also loves taking baths and tries to jump in with me all the time.
I bath her when she is dirty or every month and a half. I also just wash her legs 2-3 times a week since she gets on the bed and the sofa... other than that: CHLOE AND WATER MIX WELL! :happyhappy:

Beagles, like people, have different likes and dislikes. My Li'l Girl is one of the beagles who wants nothing to do with water. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/eek.gif She tolerates her baths, but that's about all. :eyes:

I depends on the beagle. Murphy hated water before his back injury. His rehab was swimming. It took a while but he now loves the water.

When Summer had to rehab her leg, we tried swimming. We had to pull her in using two lead ropes. Murphy, unleashed, just walked into the pool and was swimming behind her. She could not get out of the pool fast enough for her liking.

Maggie loves to swim, could care less if it is raining when she is outside and, until we had to start weekly baths, didn't mind her every 3 month or so bath. We've never tried the beach because she also loves to eat sand (which makes her terribly sick) ...
