✨ Client Spotlight: Harry & Ally ✨

We’re so grateful to Madeline for sharing her experience with K9 Aquatic Therapy and Conditioning!

Harry, her dachshund, started hydrotherapy to strengthen his back and help prevent IVDD. Though he was a bit nervous at first, with patience and care, Harry now confidently walks into the treadmill on his own—and absolutely loves his sessions!

Ally, her senior greyhound, came to us struggling with weakness in her back legs after a tough surgery recovery. With low-impact hydrotherapy tailored to her needs (and her heart condition), Ally has built strength, improved her stamina on walks, and can now stand up more easily without her back legs shaking. Even her chiropractor has noticed the difference!

Hydrotherapy is all about supporting dogs at their own pace, and we’re so proud of the progress Harry and Ally have made. Thank you, Madeline, for trusting us to care for your wonderful dogs! 🐾

🌈 In Loving Memory of Benny 🌈

It is with heavy hearts that we share the news of Benny’s passing after a diagnosis of cancer. Benny was our very first client when K9 Aquatic Therapy and Conditioning began, and we were honored to see him fortnightly and build such a special bond.

Benny was more than just a client; he was a shining light. Always wagging his tail and greeting us with his big, happy smile, he brought so much joy to every session. His unwavering spirit and love will be deeply missed.

To Benny’s hooman, our thoughts and sympathies are with you during this difficult time. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of Benny’s life and journey.

Run free, Benny. Your pawprints are forever on our hearts. ❤️

🌞 Hot Weather Tips for Keeping Your Dog Safe! 🐾

As temperatures rise, it’s vital to keep our furry friends cool and comfortable. Here are some essential reminders:

🐕 Never leave your dog in the car, even for a few minutes. Temperatures can soar dangerously fast!
🐾 Ensure they have plenty of shade and access to fresh, clean water at all times.
🌅 Limit walks to the early morning or late evening to avoid hot pavement and overheating.
❄️ Use cool mats, fans, or air conditioning to help them stay cool indoors.
🌡️ Watch for signs of heat stress like excessive panting, drooling, or lethargy, and act quickly if they appear.

Let’s keep our dogs happy, healthy, and cool this summer! 🐕💦

Stay cool and safe this summer! 🐶💦

🎄 Keep Your Pup Safe This Festive Season! 🎄

The holidays are a time for sharing, but when it comes to people food, some treats can be dangerous for our furry friends. 🐕🚫 Here are a few common holiday foods to avoid giving your dog:

❌ Chocolate – A festive favorite for us, but toxic for dogs.
❌ Cooked Bones – They can splinter and cause serious harm.
❌ Onions, Garlic, & Chives – Found in many dishes, these are harmful to your dog’s red blood cells.
❌ Fatty Foods – High-fat treats can lead to pancreatitis.
❌ Grapes & Raisins – These holiday snacks can cause kidney failure.
❌ Alcohol – Even a small amount can be dangerous for pets.

Instead, spoil them with dog-friendly treats or festive toys! 🎁 Let’s keep this season merry and safe for everyone in your family—paws included. 🐾

💦 Did you know there’s a difference between a trained and certified Canine Hydrotherapist? At K9 Aquatic Therapy and Conditioning, we’re proud to have Rick, a Certified Canine Hydrotherapist, leading our sessions! 🐾

While a trained hydrotherapist has hands-on skills, certification means Rick has gone further—completing comprehensive coursework on canine anatomy, physiology, and advanced hydrotherapy techniques, all verified through a formal exam. This certification ensures Rick meets the highest standards in the industry, offering you and your dog peace of mind with top-quality, safe, and effective care.

When it comes to your dog’s health, trust in certified expertise! 💙

Running a dog therapy business is a journey full of heartwarming moments and heartfelt challenges.

The joys?
🐾 Meeting so many amazing dogs and their pawsome guardians.
💪 Watching dogs regain their strength and confidence.
🦴 Helping pups avoid surgery or recover post-surgery.
🐕 Seeing wagging tails and happy trots into our facility for their hydrotherapy sessions.

The challenges?
🤝 Building trust with every new client.
🚶 Working with reluctant walkers and understanding what motivates them.
💔 Saying goodbye to those who’ve completed their recovery—it’s bittersweet every time.

Every dog we work with teaches us something new, and every wag reminds us why we do what we do.

Caring for dogs brings joy to our hearts—what brings joy to yours?

💦 Curious about hydrotherapy? At K9 Aquatic Therapy and Conditioning, we specialise in underwater treadmill therapy—a powerful tool for safe, controlled rehabilitation and conditioning! 🐾

Our underwater treadmill offers a unique advantage: we can precisely adjust the water level and speed, allowing for low-impact, weight-bearing exercise that’s perfect for building strength, improving mobility, and reducing strain on joints. This is especially valuable for dogs recovering from surgery, managing arthritis, or strengthening muscles in a gradual, supported way.

While swimming is a great non-weight-bearing option, the underwater treadmill lets us cater each session to your dog’s specific needs, from post-surgery recovery to long-term joint care. Reach out to us to see how hydrotherapy can support your dog’s health journey! 💙🐶

🐾 Why Hydrotherapy is Ideal for Developing Puppies 🐾

Hydrotherapy offers a wealth of benefits for puppies, making it an ideal choice for young dogs in their critical growth stages. Through water-based exercises, hydrotherapy provides unique support for healthy development in a safe, low-impact way.

Here are just a few of the reasons hydrotherapy can be so beneficial for puppies:

✨ Joint Protection: Water’s buoyancy reduces pressure on growing joints, allowing puppies to exercise without bearing their full weight—perfect for pups with joint concerns.

✨ Muscle Strength & Endurance: The natural resistance of water tones and strengthens muscles, building overall fitness and conditioning.

✨ Injury Recovery & Arthritis Relief: Warm water relieves pain and improves range of motion, while also promoting healing and reducing inflammation in puppies with injuries or early arthritis.

✨ Heart & Circulatory Health: Offering a gentle aerobic workout, strengthening the heart, boosting circulation, and supporting long-term health.

✨ Prevention & Injury Protection: For active or athletic puppies, hydrotherapy builds coordination and fitness, helping prevent injuries and setting them up for a lifetime of healthy play.

Start your puppy’s hydrotherapy journey today to support a strong, active, and happy future! 💦🐶
