Can pets go swimming in the ocean?
I read on the Sims wiki that they can, but for some reason my Sim's dog won't go into the water. Am I doing something wrong??

Dogs definitely swim in the ocean. Unless they are hydrophobic, but the game will have notified you of that when the dog first came into contact with water.
But, my dog needed some time to start swimming in the ocean. I did "swim here with..." a couple of times but she was rather reluctant so I decided to let her be. Then several days later she just started swimming randomly and she seems to be enjoying it. I've seen her get into the water much more frequently after that. I haven't seen her swim past the very shallow parts of the ocean though, but she is a small dog (though I don't expect that to matter).
