Here is a cute puppy to cheer you up on a miserable Monday.
This was Jives second swim and he did really well.
It is good to teach dogs to swim as puppies incase they accidentally fall into water. It is a low impact exercise for their developing bones.
Our team can help make your puppy’s first experience with water a safe and positive experience.
As puppies cannot swim for as long as adult dogs we offer puppy swims at a discounted rate.
If you have a puppy let us know and we can contact you with more information.

Introducing staff dog Alan the lurcher.

He was rescued in a terrible state, starved with multiple wounds. It has been a slow recovery increasing his weight from 10.7 to 21.5 kg.
Dogs are amazing and despite what he has been through he is very happy and loving.
This week he had his first hydrotherapy session which he took in his stride

Did you know that dogs can have acupuncture?
It can be used for a range of conditions including pain management.
The needles are very fine, much finer than a vaccination needle so are usually tolerated well.

Stanley has been having hydrotherapy in our underwater treadmill to help with his recovery following cruciate surgery.
Yesterday he had a swim to help prepare him for being let off lead in a few weeks time.

Eric has been such a rewarding dog to treat.

He came to us following hip surgery. He was not using the leg much to start with but is now back to running around on 4 legs. We are now helping him to build up the muscles.

Eric had a very unique swimming style and despite his size needed two hydrotherapists to safely swim him. This video shows how much progress he has made.

He has made us very happy 😊

With the big day approaching fast we wanted to wish all our clients a very happy Christmas.

Rather than giving cards we have made a donation to Many Tears Animal Rescue

If you have any Christmassy photos of your pets we would love to see them.

Beautiful girl Jazz having a shower after her swim.
Our water is chlorinated to keep it hygienic. We regularly test the water to check that the chlorine and pH are within a safe range but we still shower the dogs after their treatments.
After her shower Jazz had a blow dry.

We often take photos and videos during treatments this allows us to make cute videos like this one of Gizmo but more importantly it allows us to objectively see improvements in their movement.
It is also a good way to show owners how hard their dog is working and what we are doing to improve their movement.

Interesting read and something I hadn’t considered. It is interesting to think how other conformational problems may influence behaviour.

I often post about little easy things that you can do to make your dog’s life a bit less stressful (covering slippery floors, taking collars off at the end of the day etc).

However, what about the things we can’t change and that many guardians don’t even realise could be an issue for your dog. I’m talking about how your dog is put together: their confirmation.

Some of our smaller companion dogs, such as pugs, shih tzus, chihuahuas, have been bred to have larger eyes. This is because humans have a bias to large eyes and it was thought that we would make some breeds ‘more attractive’.

To make eyes bigger the dogs have been bred to have shallower eye sockets. So the dogs have normals sized eyeballs that don’t completely fit into the eye socket, meaning that the majority of the eye is protruding and exposed to the elements.

Large bulging eyes are more susceptible to eye injuries, there is a risk of prolapse (which is what Flea had a few years ago which was extremely painful & distressing for him), infections, corneal ulcers, cherry eye to name a few. Some eyes protrude so much that the dog can’t fully blink and are therefore even more sensitive to windy, rainy, cold and hot weather. Eyes can become dry in some places but can also often weep. Tears, mucous, skin cells can gather in the corner of the eyes which can be uncomfortable.

Yet another example of breeding without considering the welfare of the dog.

So next time your small dog doesn’t want to go out, could it be because they have sensitive eyes?

Big, ‘bug eyes’ are extremely common but by no means normal.👀

Morgana has had a hair cut so now we can see her beautiful happy face.
Her lovely family have also brought her a drying coat for after her hydrotherapy. Her tail was so happy it is blurred.
If you think that your dog could be a happy hydro hound give us a 😁
