House of Hound is a NARCH registered hydrotherapy centre which offers both aquatic and land based therapy with additional weekly Class 3b laser clinics. All our sessions are carried out by a fully qualified hydrotherapist or physiotherapist (ACPAT, NAVP) and we offer only safe water sessions where dogs are at the centre of the session. Whether this is for a dog who has a diagnosed condition, getti

ng older in age, or a puppy straight from their first injections - we can cater for all dogs. We offer private sessions for owners and their pets, and you will never share the pool or treadmill with other clients dogs during your session. If your dog has a diagnosed condition, we liaise with your vets to obtain the medical history and offer full assessments, which allow us to consider how best to treat your animal. For those with fit, active and healthy dogs - we can offer introduction to water sessions for dogs who are not very confident. Those dogs who are more confident and want to come for exercise, mental stimulation or to improve muscle or stamina - we offer a more tailored exercise session, based on the ability and breed. This is also suitable for sporting or working dogs. We never work the dog beyond their ability and only set them up to achieve! Each session is individually tailored to your dog - we work with owners to find out exactly what your dog is like. Our physiotherapy sessions are offered with ACPAT Chartered Physio - Lisa Emerson, who has been with House of Hound since the opening in 2017. Lisa is well established in both her human and animal physiotherapy. She predominantly treats horses and dogs - but also offers horse rider clinics and other animal treatment - including cats and farm animals. Hydrotherapy sessions are facilitated by either Victoria (Hydrotherapist) Louise or Zoe who are both (Hydrotherapist and Veterinary Physio - MSc)
Each session is carried out in a therapeutic way, with force free handling. We use positive techniques, to guide your dog within their session. Owners will be talked through each process by the therapist. Victoria also offers Mantrailing UK introduction workshops and training. This is getting dogs to sniff and track a human scent. It's great fun for owners and dogs alike and brilliant to both focus and tire your dog. Sessions are advertised on both social media and the website with booking and more information available there. Scent workshops are also available for those who would like to work their dog on a specific scent. Victoria is a City and Guilds qualified scent instructor and has also qualified with UK Sniffer Dogs and Scent Work UK. These are offered via our sister business Sniff and Trail UK. We can teach right from the basics up to competition level. Info is also on social pages and the website

🐾 Say hello to Neo! 🐾
This handsome three year old German Shepherd has just completed his first treadmill session with us today! 🎉

Neo has already had a few pool sessions, and today we focused on getting him comfortable with the treadmill. His mum is thinking ahead to his future health—German Shepherds can be prone to hip problems and issues with their hindquarters as they age. By introducing him to the treadmill now, she’s giving him the best chance to stay strong and confident with the equipment, just in case he needs it later in life. 💪🐕

German Shepherds are incredibly versatile—whether they’re working dogs, show dogs, or family companions, all lines benefit from hydrotherapy and physiotherapy to keep them fit, active, and healthy for as long as possible. 🐕‍🦺✨

Not only is Neo here for fun and fitness, but he’s also a superstar at trailing and has done some scent work with us at too! 🐶🌟 We’re working on arousal management in the water to ensure he’s calm and focused during his sessions. 🌊

Did you know that two of our own staff dogs, Pumpkin and Peanut, are also German Shepherds? 🐕‍🦺🐕‍🦺 They have regular hydrotherapy sessions to stay fit, support their joint health, and manage any issues they may have - so we know first-hand how valuable this type of care is for keeping these incredible dogs healthy and happy! ❤️

👏 Huge shoutout to Neo’s mum for being so proactive and setting him up for a long, happy, and healthy life! We love seeing owners invest in their dog’s well-being.

👉 Are you a German Shepherd owner? We'd love to hear about your experiences with our hydrotherapy or physiotherapy services! Drop us a comment below 👇🏻 if you'd like to share your story! 🐾💬

🐾 French Bulldogs and Hydrotherapy: A Perfect Match! 🐾

French Bulldogs are one of the most common breeds we see here at House of Hound Hydrotherapy. Their unique conformation - compact bodies, muscular builds, and adorable screw-tails - makes them prone to spinal issues like hemivertebrae and Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD). Their build also makes them susceptible to patella luxation, where the kneecap slips out of place due to weaker joint support.

If left unmanaged, these conditions can lead to pain, reduced mobility, and even neurological symptoms, impacting your Frenchie's quality of life. Hydrotherapy offers a safe and effective way to:

✨ Strengthen muscles to support the spine and joints
✨ Improve mobility and flexibility
✨ Relieve pain and aid rehabilitation
✨ Boost overall fitness and confidence

At House of Hound, we tailor every session to your dog’s needs, helping them thrive. 💦🐶

🌟 The Hidden Power of Hydrotherapy for Dogs 🌟

Did you know that hydrotherapy isn’t just for rehabilitation? While it’s a fantastic tool for helping dogs recover from injuries or manage conditions like arthritis, it’s also brilliant for:

🦴 Improving General Fitness: Swimming builds muscle, improves cardiovascular health, and burns off energy in a low-impact way – perfect for active dogs or those who need a bit of extra exercise.

💧 Weight Management: For dogs needing to shed a few pounds, hydrotherapy provides a safe, supportive way to exercise without putting extra strain on their joints.

🐾 Building Confidence: Nervous or older dogs often thrive in a hydrotherapy setting. The warm water and one-to-one attention can help them feel secure and supported.

At House of Hound Hydrotherapy, we see dogs of all shapes, sizes, and abilities using the pool and underwater treadmill for everything from rehabilitation to general fitness. It’s a joy watching them thrive! 💪🏻

📸 Here's a photo of Eli in our underwater treadmill during his initial assessment! Eli is a rare breed of dog - we bet no one knows what he is! 🐶 Put your guesses in the comments below 👇🏻

Little Winston braved the snowy weather yesterday for his physiotherapy session, wrapped up snug in his stylish snood and jacket! ❄️🐾

Staying warm is so important for our short-haired pups during the cold snap, especially after a session of Hydrotherapy or physiotherapy 💪✨

Is your dog winter-ready? Let us know in the comments below 👇🏼

20/11/2024

Aw the joy! Our little Ellie-Belly has 4 legs working 🥰 we are so pleased 🎉

Nellie is all snug, warm and content in her drying coat after her hydrotherapy session! 🛁🐾

Drying coats aren’t just a cute accessory - they’re an essential part of keeping your dog comfortable, especially during the colder months! These coats are designed to wick away excess water from your dog’s fur while keeping them warm, which is vital for maintaining their body temperature post-swim or treadmill session. Staying warm also helps keep their muscles relaxed and promotes recovery, making it an important part of their treatment plan 💪🏼.

If your dog has regular hydrotherapy, a drying coat is a simple but effective way to ensure they stay comfortable and safe all year round. 😀

We are monitoring the weather overnight and will be in touch in the morning if any sessions need to be rearranged due to the weather. Our priority is the safety and wellbeing of our clients and your dogs 🐕

Say hello to Pickle, the sweetest 11-year-old American Staffy mix 🐾💙 Not only is Pickle deaf, but he also has hip dysplasia, so he visits us weekly for for hydrotherapy and physiotherapy to keep him moving comfortably and allowing him to live his best life! 💪🏼 This reel captures a special moment—Pickle’s very first swim in our hydrotherapy pool! 🌊 Having always previously had hydrotherapy on our underwater treadmill before, he was understandably a little unsure at first. But with patience, cuddles, and gentle guidance from Victoria, Pickle was swimming like a champ in no time. 🏊‍♂️🐶 November is Senior Pet Awareness Month, and Pickle is a perfect example of how senior dogs can thrive with the right care and a bit of encouragement. Rescued by his amazing mum, who has put so much love and effort into helping him become the wonderful dog he is today, Pickle shows us that every senior dog deserves a chance to shine. ✨ 👉 If you have a senior dog, hydrotherapy could be just what they need to keep their body strong and their heart happy.

Did you know that hydrotherapy is more than just a fun swim for dogs? Here’s why it’s a real game-changer for their health and happiness: 💙 A Mood-Boosting Dip: Hydrotherapy isn’t just physical; it’s a mental game-changer! The warm water and low-impact exercise release endorphins - the same feeling good hormones humans get from a workout - which can help reduce stress and anxiety. For dogs recovering from an injury, this can be a real confidence builder, as they regain the ability to move freely without pain! 🐾 ✨ Hidden Muscles Unleashed! Hydrotherapy taps into those hard-to-reach muscles thanks to water resistance. Every step a dog takes in the underwater treadmill works their muscles far more effectively than a walk on land! For our canine friends, this means developing balanced muscle tone that helps prevent injuries and supports overall fitness. 💪🐶 ❤️ Heart & Lungs Love It: Hydrotherapy doesn’t just build muscle; it also gives the heart and lungs a boost. As dogs work against water resistance, they improve cardiovascular health without straining their joints, making it ideal for hounds of all ages! This workout keeps them strong and energised while supporting healthy breathing and circulation. The extra cardio boost can even increase lung capacity, which helps with stamina in other activities! Hydrotherapy is like a full-body wellness session – mind, body, and heart included. ❤️💦 Ready to help your dog dive into wellness? Email us to book at 📨 [email protected] – we’d love to see your pup in our pool or treadmill! 🐾 #HouseOfHound #HouseOfHoundHydro #HoHHQ

Is there anything better than a cute puppy?! 🥺😍 Daphne from Pevensie Labradors came to see us this week, for her second puppy swim 💦 She is a super little swimmer 🤩🐾

Tilly! 🐶 Tilly came to see us yesterday with her fancy new pants on! She was happily strutting her stuff in style in the underwater treadmill 😎🐾 Sometimes the water can stimulate unexpected toileting for dogs, so we highly recommend washable pants for dogs with spinal or neurological issues to wear in the treadmill and pool! 🩲 #houseofhound #houseofhoundhydro #hohhq #caninehydrotherapy #hydrotherapy #hydrofordogs #hydrotherapyfordogs #rehabfordogs #caninerehabilitation #canineconditioning #narch #aquatreadmill #underwatertreadmill #cambassador #caninearthritismanagement #huddersfield #kirklees #huddersfielddogs #kirkleesdogs #yorkshiredogs #dogsofyorkshire

Meet Ellie! 🥰 Ellie is a rescue Beagle from Cyprus, whose rehab journey has not been an easy one! Over the past 5 years Ellie has had both TTA cruciates, a Patella groove replacement, meniscus and removal of the PGR. That's 5 knee operations, with 4 being on one leg! Ellie still has some lameness on her right hind, and comes to see us weekly for pool hydrotherapy, to improve function and range of movement in the affected limb. Ellie has the best mum who is completely dedicated to her and her fur-siblings and their needs! Her commitment and consistency with Ellie's rehab has made a huge difference to her journey, and we're really pleased to be a part of it! Go Ellie 🤩 #houseofhoundhydrotherapy #houseofhoundhydro #houseofhound #hohhq

Our Story

Canine Hydrotherapy Centre - Huddersfield

We offer hydrotherapy in the form of rehabilitation, fun and fitness, weight management, puppy swims where we introduce your dog to water safely. We also offer programmes for canine athletes such as agility or flyball dogs. We are registered with NARCH (National Association Registered Canine Hydrotherapists)

Alongside our rehabilitation in the pool we offer land based physiotherapy with our in house ACPAT Chartered Physiotherapist who can work with owners to develop home programmes.We work mainly with dogs, but also work with other small animals. Our Physiotherapist also works with horses/riders/dog walkers and owners.

In addition to hydrotherapy, we are qualified as a Mantrailing UK instructor and hold intorduciton workshops with follow on weekly training events - which involves working with your dog as a team to find the ‘missing person’ by tracking the human scent trail.
