WHY MASSAGE?

Any dog can benefit from massage, even at the most basic level. It can be especially helpful for seniors, competitive athletes, dogs with mobility issues and chronic conditions, those recovering from surgery or injuries, dogs on bed rest, and those who are anxious, hyperactive or depressed. Massage can also provide comfort and relief for dogs during their end-of-life care.
