Dogs and their owners splash around together in open-air swimming pool

Dogs and their owners splashed around together in open-air swimming pool as they enjoyed the last few rays of summer sun. The ‘doggy swim day’ was held at Gourock Outdoor Pool, in Gourock, Inverclyde, for the first time ever in Scotland. Organisers were inspired by similar events which have taken place in England. Stephen McNally, 43, went for a dip with his Spanish water dog, Ibby. The pooch, aged four-and-a-half, loves splashing around in water and Stephen, who works as a resource manager, was happy to join her.
