It was a dog’s world at Winnipeg wading pools Saturday.

The City of Winnipeg allowed dogs of all shapes and sizes to beat the heat and play in two wading pools before facilities closed for the season.

Happyland Pool on Marion Street and Bruce Park Pool on Portage Avenue hosted happy dogs and their owners Saturday morning.

Small dogs were able to frolic in the water for two hours before bigger canines took over until 3 p.m.

The event was hosted as a celebration while the city closed out its 2017 aquatics season.

All dogs involved were required to be licensed with the City of Winnipeg.
