As a kid, I always hated “adult swim” at the pool. We had to climb out-and watch the lumbering old people EASE their way into the water. Sometimes, rather LARGE old people who, if they did start to drown, would take an entire team of lifeguards down with them. Plastic bathing caps with gaudy yellow flowers glued on and enough fabric in their bathing suits to cover the infield at Fenway Park.
Then, after “adults”, it was “couples swim”. Then “girls only”. Hey, the summer’s almost OVER! Can I please swim now?
Of course, “dog swim only” takes the cake. At my sister’s pool in Northern Virginia, this occurs right before they close up the pool for the season (good move). After all, who wants to take a dip after a hundred hounds relieve themselves?
Not enough chlorine in the WORLD.
That said, I am an animal lover-and since I can’t imagine CATS diggin’ the swim scene, we’ll have to settle for Fido and Friends.
Check out this video of a similar “dogs only swim”!
