Doggie Pool Day in Hacienda Heights!

Fully Fenced
0.02 acres

I love dogs! (and any pets, to be honest. lol). My kids are no longer at the age where they care to use the pool, and my dog is afraid of the water. haha. I figured there are other dogs out there who loves to swim, but it's not always feasible to take them to the lake or beach. And some need the water for physical training or mobility/pain therapy. All fur babies are welcome in my pool (and of course, their human family members). The house casts a shade on the pool during the mornings (for a cooler swim) or for those who love the SoCal heat, the sun shines directly over the pool in the afternoons. You are welcome to bring your own toys, floating devices, therapy equipment, snacks, beverages (no alcohol), etc.. If you have any special requirements or needs, please let me know and I will work with you to accommodate. But most importantly, have fun! :)
