My only advice is to CALL and schedule. Don't book online. Otherwise, I cannot recommend this place enough! I would drive across the state, the country, the globe to have my dog swim here! Beth had a variety of treats for dogs to use during their swimming lessons. My boy has severe food allergies and can only have salmon/fish cookies, so this made a great first impression! My dog isn't nervous, but he can be frightful in new situations. Beth saw his heart right away. She met him where he was, pushed when he could handle it, and let him breathe when he needed it. Her extensive training in dog behavior did not go unnoticed! She was so in-tune with his body language and cues. She knows what she's doing, 110%. After our session, my pup was confident, happy, and proud of himself for his hard and brave work overcoming his nerves around the pool. He was practically swimming laps around me at the end! We can't wait to come back.

Dog Dive has been an exceptional find. My lab has benefited from water therapy for 2 years now. The owners do such a good job working with our Maggie.

I would highly recommend this place for all dogs but especially senior dogs. Beth made Izzy feel very comfortable and Izzy was so excited to go swim with her!

My dog had surgery on both back legs. Each time I used The Dog Dive for her physical therapy. I can’t tell you how much it helped her recover.

Dog dive is always great, knowledgeable, and possibly the most friendly people youll find. They will take great care of your pup!

Always a great place!!! Never a bad experience. My dog is learning how to swim with confidence and it is also fun exercise for her as well. The whole training session is positive. Highly recommend this place.

I've been sending my 8 month old German Shepherd to daycare at Dog Dive for a couple months now. Ronan loves to hang out with his pals in the front office and greet everyone that comes in. I feel so comfortable leaving my fur child with them when I'm at work and can't be with him. He always comes home exhausted from a full day and really I couldn't ask for anything more. We love Dog Dive!

Following my young malamute's surgery on both elbows for dysplasia, aqua therapy was recommended. I spent hours online only to learn that Kalamazoo had no such services available--the closest program being in Grand Rapids. Thank goodness, along came the Dog Dive! Beth took a fraidy-cat mal and by working very gently and POSITIVELY with him, turned him into a boy who LOVES his swim time! Beth and Darryl are both wonderfully kind owners and I'm so glad they've stepped in to meet a major need in the area.
