Bailey's girls Metka-Miina (Wheelback's In The Mood) and Demi (Wheelback's I Am The One) and son Sipowicz (Wheelback's Mr Handsome) met at the dog spa in Hyvinkää in order to train swimming. The girls are just seven months old so this was their first time in the pool. Sipowicz already knows how to swim.

Metka-Miina thought that this was not so bad, it was safe to jump to the pool wearing a safety west.
