Paws in the Pool / The Venetian
The Venetian Pool was packed with furry patrons on Sunday, October 1, as it welcomed dogs of all kinds to swim with their humans for the day. Two time slots were loosely split between small dogs late morning and bigger dogs in the afternoon, but as long as the pups remained friendly they were allowed to stay as long as they could keep afloat.
