paddling pool for dogs?

Given the warmer weather we've been having, i was thinking of getting one of those sand pit/paddling pool things for my dogs to help keep them cool.

Both are small terrier type dogs and love swimming - any opinions?

I get my cocker spaniel a new one every year, they keep getting bigger and bigger each year. He loves it and keeps him nice and cool. One thing i would say, remember to close the back door, otherwise your house will be drenched. Argos the best place for a cheap one :-)

Good idea, bought one of the blow up kind for my dog last year but it's long gone. Used to throw the tennis ball and some treats into it to encourage him to jump in and out of it. I suppose you could just using it as a digging pit during the winter if you fill it with some compost.

Ohhh great idea... my two have the lawn ruined with their digging, so might get one of those ones with a lid.. and put sand in the other half.

Will definitely keep the back door closed though and keep it well away from the clothes line too
