They do come in different sizes. The sheep stock tank (shown) is big enough for them to splash and lay in, yet small enough to clean easily and fit in the kennel with them.

animules?
Do you happen to recall what that tank cost you? I have only seen them here in galvenized and I'm curious, I may change over if it's something I can afford in quantity or maybe just pick them up one by one.
Oh, I have a catalog from Farmtek here, i can look them up, but it'd probably be cheaper to have a local feed supply store get them in that have them shipped from Farmtek

It's great to see everyone's doggie dearest enjoying a splash or two
Kudos

The one in the picture was around $70. The first one I bought is now 5-years old and doesn't show much wear. I was going through mulitple kiddie pools every year before I got these.

My girls know the commands "splash" and "shake" which means shake off the excess water after splash.

We would go through 2 pools a summer...don't ask! Then I went out and got the next size up from what Animules has..it's perfect - they go diving in and out of it , hide balls from each other underwater (that you have to see to believe), can't dig the bottom out of it and can't take it and fly around the field with it empty playing keep away!. It also one other big plus - if we're going to get a hurricane, I can fill it with water (I think it's a 75 gallon one - ran abotu 70-80 dollars at my feed store...)

Flygirl -- Name of the product ? Made of ? I was looking in a Farmtek catalog, but couldn't find them. Would Tractor Supply have them ? Thanks

MM - it's made of really heavy poly-plastic of some sort. Mine has 3 tiers in/on it? -there are three levels to it - the bottom, then another up from that ,and then the top. Name of product - let me run out and look....hold on....well, that was an adventure- it's a Duraflex Stock tank -turns out the dog one is 40 gallons (horses have 75 one...it gets confusing

) Yes , good ole Tracker Suppy (one of my favorite stores) should have them. I found that my local feed store was cheaper.

I have gotten all of mine at Tractor Supply also. One brand is Rubber Maid. Not sure of the other brands.

All the old metal ones I used for livestock are now planters.

Great -- Thank you both for the info.

Mine LOVE the kiddie pool. I can't keep Indi or Jena out of it, Lina is fast following in their footsteps. Galan is kind of snotty and usually only dips his nose it the here and there or maybe his feet if it's hot enough. Our new home is going to be about 10 minutes from the lake and I can't wait to take them swimming. I'll be Galan gets in the water if I throw his toy in there lol

Loved all the pictures...
The picture of the puppy waiting for the pool to be filled is awesome :-)
