dog swimming in Lake Chapala?

We're bringing our dog down this January. She's a big gorgeous Bernadoodle, and I'm already teaching her Spanish. Is it safe to let her swim in the lake? What do we do about water? Will she gt used to it?

My dogs swim in the lake. and eat the dried dead fish as well and have never been sick.They can get smelly but have never been sick.

My dog has also gone swimming in the lake with no ill effects other than needing a hose off and good brushing.

I see dogs swimming out there everyday. I wouldn't have a problem if my dog went in however she doesn't like the water.

That's great news. My dog loves the water  and it would be hard to keep her out.

Thx,
