ANN ARBOR – It’s that time of year again -- pools will soon close and schools will reopen but not without one very important community event in between: Ann Arbor’s Dog Swim.

The annual event at Buhr Park Pool allows dogs to splash around and swim in the pool after it’s closed to the public with other four-legged friends across two days.
