Meet the gorgeous Adric. He is not the most confident dog and we had to take things really slowly with him. Today was his 16th session and he smashed it! We even managed an incline of 10% which will really help build muscle in his hind limbs. Well done 👏 💪

Please take care when swimming your dogs in lakes, rivers and the sea.

HYPONATREMIA 🐾
Did you know that if dogs swallow too much water when the are swimming, they can become seriously ill? This is called Hyponatremia - very low levels of sodium in the blood. It occurs when a dog swallows too much water and it dilutes the amount of sodium in the blood.

This doesn't mean no more swimming, it just means be careful that your dog does not get too excited and make sure that they do not spend excessive amounts of time in the water in one go.

👀 Water intoxication signs incl:
- Staggering/loss of coordination
- Lethargy
- Weakness
- Nausea
- Bloating
- Vomiting
- Dilated pupils
- Glazed eyes
- Excessive salivation

While all dogs are at risk of water intoxication if they swallow too much water, some dogs are more at risk than others. These include:
- Small dogs that only need to swallow a small amount of water to have too much
- High energy dogs that may spend more time in the water
- Dogs with little fat to absorb excess fluid
