The dog paddle is a basic swimming stroke where the swimmer moves their arms and legs in a way that resembles a dog paddling in the water. The arms move in small, circular motions in front of the body while the legs kick in a gentle flutter. The swimmer’s face stays above the water, and breathing is easy. This stroke is often used by beginners or those who are learning to swim, as it is a simple and natural movement that helps maintain buoyancy and stability in the water.
