Dog Won't Swim?

I’m curious as well. My dog in game is also terrified of the pool. I’m hoping there’s some way to help him get over his fear.

Pets have random loves and fears of particular objects. At some point, someone will probably post the cheat codes to add and remove fears. Short of that, probably not much you can do.

My dog is the opposite, she's obsessed with swimming. Cute but she always shakes herself off and leaves a puddle after. Have to train her not to roll in it (needs a bath) and she also drinks the water.

My dog irl loves to swim and when I made him in the sims I was hoping I could get him to swim but sadly he is terrified of the pool, how can I fix this?

I'm getting the same issue. I'm wondering if this is a glitch.

That's not a glitch.....the dog has a fear of the pool.

I deleted the pool to make the dog more comfortable.

I really want my dog to swim too. He is an adult Mastiff so large enough to get in/out of a pool but not a chance! :'(

If you turn on testingcheats, shift clicking on a pet will give options like so:


So maybe shift clicking on your pet at some point will bring up the pool option so you can have them obsess over the pool.

Actually, those two quirks appear every time you shift+click on any pet, no matter where they are or what they're around. I don't know why it's just those two that appear either.
