About 50 dogs were expected to participate throughout the day.Tender Care Veterinary Center in Falcon provided treats and toys. Hannah Stockdale, certified veterinary assistant, said there was at least one person on hand at all times who is certified in dog CPR in case of an emergency.Haley Ratliff, a WHMD resident, said this was her German Shepherdís first time in a big pool, and the puppy appeared to enjoy the experience.
