Let’s dive right in! Basset Hounds, with their charming droopy eyes and floppy ears, might not look like your typical Michael Phelps, but they can indeed swim. However, swimming might not be their first choice of exercise. These pooches were bred for their keen sense of smell and stamina for hunting, not for water sports. So, while they can paddle around, they’re not the aquatic athletes of the dog world.
