Dog swim at Kirkwood Aquatic Center Tuesday, September 2, from 5 p.m. until 7 p.m.

Inclement weather phone number: [masked]

Rainout date: Friday September 5 from 5 p.m. until 7 p.m.

These pooch pool-party fundraisers offer well-mannered dogs and their families the opportunity to take an end-of-season dip for $10 per dog and one human companion, and $3 per additional friend or family member.

One half of the entry fees will be contributed to the Missouri Alliance for Animal Legislation. The Alliance is the only non-profit organization lobbying full time on animal welfare issues in Missouri. Mark your calendar and plan to join us for some good clean fun, while helping the Alliance speak up about puppy mills and other legislative issues involving animals. For more information about the Alliance, please visit their website at: www.maal.org

    It's a nice outdoor facility w/1 very shallow baby pool, 1 zero entry pool which goes up to 3 feet, 1 lazy river & 1 deep pool which is probaby 3.5-4 ft deep @ its shallowist. There is a decent snack bar, but not sure if it would be open or not. Please take your dog next door 2 Kirkwood park (accessible from the pool's parking lot) to "empty" BEFORE coming swimming! Poop in the pool really puts a damper on things and IS avoidable...

    Gatsby and I will be there. It should be fun to see how he does with a big swimming pool!

Who attended?

  • 21 attendees
    •  Teddy had a wonderful time romping and playing with the other dogs in the water. He wore himself out. 
    •  This was soooooo much fun. We had a blast! 
    •  Gatsby was a bit overwhelmed with all the activity as were a lot of other dogs. But he did seem to enjoy it overall. He went home a happy, tired dog. 
    •  There were hundreds of people and dogs at this event and I never saw a sign that said "active dogs meetup". So, we didn't know who was in this meetup. And, we played with dogs from our dogpark. 
    • Dee
       This was the best meeting so far. It was so fun!!! 
    •  I didn't see anyone else from the Meetup group there, but it was really crowded with lost of dogs and their owners. It was a good time, there were two pools for the dogs to swim in. 
    •  My dog wouldn't swim! She was the only dog NOT in the pool. Silly girl! 
    •  Frida had a blast!
