SPLASH! OCEAN PINES DOGGIE SWIM RETURNS

The Mumford’s Landing Pool in Ocean Pines will be filled with dog-paddling pooches on Saturday, Sept. 9 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. for its annual Doggie Swim.

“It’s a cool event during the dog days of summer,” said Ocean Pines Marketing and Public Relations Director Denise Sawyer. “The annual swim will give canines a chance to cool off and doggie paddle under the watchful eyes of their pet owners.”

The event is a fundraiser for the Worcester County Humane Society, a non-profit, no-kill shelter that relies primarily on donations.

The annual fundraiser allows both small and large dogs to drool in the pool, as their human companions enjoy the pool party at Mumford’s Landing Pool, located at 7351 Yacht Club Drive in Ocean Pines, before it closes for the season.

The cost of the Doggie Swim, which is open to the public, is $6 per dog and free for dog handlers. All dog handlers must be at least 18 years of age and youth under the age of 17 must be accompanied by a registered adult. Dogs should have current vaccinations, including rabies.
