Come and Catch a Wave with Us!
We have two pools for double the fun.
Jasper's Splash Zone has been providing K9 Aquatics Services sine 2015. Over the years, we have introduced several thousand of dogs to water and to the sport of Dock Diving. We take our K9 aquatics services seriously to provide your pup with the best experience ever. Swimming is an activity that allows dogs to find satisfaction and delivers a happier, healthier life. Being with your dog while they learn to swim and dock dive is a once in a lifetime experience. Watching them gain confidence in the water, have fun and beam with pride makes for special memories.
GETTING STARTED IS AS EASY AS 1, 2, 3!
01.
Schedule an Initial Session
We ask that all dogs and people new to our facility schedule an initial session. During this time
a swim/dock diving instructor will cover information about the facility and the rules for participating in activities to ensure the safety of all our clients and their dogs. The majority of the initial session will be spent with your dog in the pool making sure that your dog can safely enter and exit the pool. If your dog already knows how to swim, the session may turn into a 1:1 dock diving lesson. The session lasts 45 minutes. The maximum number of dogs that can participate in a single pool orientation is two from the same household.
After your pool orientation, you are welcomed to book a private-swim session for your dog any time during our operating hours. Please note that all of our swim / dock diving sessions are by appointment only. Just select the "Schedule Here" link below and select "Initial Swim Session" and send us the times you are available by putting yourself on the waitlist. You will receive a confirmation with a date/time of your scheduled session.
02.
Enroll & Onboard
After scheduling your initial swim, dock, or assisted swim session, fill out our Client intake form, submit a copy of your dog's vaccination records, review and sign our rules and procedures, and complete the waiver form.

The fun begins!

THE SWIMMING PROGRAM
About the program:
Let us help your dog discover how much fun swimming can be! We provide a safe controlled environment for your pup to develop the confidence around any body of water. Our Canine Swim Coaches help your dog overcome fear, learn proper form and become strong, independent swimmers. A skill that will stay with them throughout their lives! If your dog has never been swimming, a swim coach can safely introduce your dog to water to make his/her experience in the water as enjoyable and positive as possible.
-
For Fun: Some dogs just love swimming. Let your dog swim in a controlled environment while you keep him going with toys. You stay warm, and your dog gets a great workout.
-
For Wellness: Gentle physical stimulation and exercise can keep your elder or physically challenged dog healthy and comfortable, keeping muscles strong and essential body systems running smoothly.
-
For Weight Loss: Swimming is an ideal exercise for pudgy pooches. It’s a safe, low-impact way to burn calories and build muscle mass.
-
For Conditioning: Warm water swimming is the perfect solution for conditioning the canine athlete. Swimming is a very efficient whole-body exercise. With the water providing resistance, a five-minute swim is equivalent to about a five-mile run. A challenging but low-impact workout, swimming keeps your dog in peak condition for trials while sparing joints.
What's included:
-
An assortment of pool toys to check out
-
Life vests for those dogs that may need them

Discounted DIY dog wash

ASSISTED SWIM SESSIONS
About assisted swim sessions:
Sometimes our canine friends need a little assistance in the pool. A canine swim coach will work in the water with your dog with swimming, feeling comfortable and confident in the water to enjoy his/her swim session. Swims geared toward dogs that need a low impact workout due to mobility issues such as arthritis, dysplasia, or post rehab work. Our swim coaches ensure a full body workout that engages muscles to build strength, relieve pain and provide flexibility all while having fun! We also have a variety of life vests in case your dog needs just a little more help.

Dogs still learning to swim or still learning how to enter the pool, dogs who need assistance with swimming for conditioning or who are recovering from an injury after released or advisement from their veterinarian or certified canine rehab practicioner, senior dogs who just need a little bit of extra comfort. This is also ideal for introducing puppies to water.
