    Yes. Nearly all animals can swim. Sometimes, if they have never been in the water before, they may be afraid; but they are easily trained to get over their initial fear. They do not have to be taught to swim, they know how already. Normal excercise for a horse would be to swim 500 to 1500 yards. This information is from this website:
