Last month we had the pleasure of being introduced to Jack the whippet 🐾
Jack’s owner is showing him at Crufts this weekend and he’d lost a bit of condition following a tummy bug, so he came to us to build up some muscle for the show ring 💪🏻
He’s done an amazing job in the treadmill as whippets aren’t natural water babies but Jack is looking amazing after an intensive programme of hydrotherapy and all that’s left to say is good luck for the weekend 🍀

Brody came to us last month for a bit of extra support following two TPLO (cruciate repair) surgeries on his hind legs 🤕 as you can see he’s doing really well!

Goose is another sports dog who enjoys running 🐕🏃🏼(canicross) and biking 🐕🚴🏻 (bikejor) with his owner for fun
We can work on Goose’s endurance in the treadmill with the water height and the incline, strengthening and conditioning him for the cooler weather and some faster running 🐾🐾👟👟

We’re always slowing it down for our clients in the treadmill 🐾🐕
Even with the fit sport dogs we need to be able to see their movement at slow speeds but also in slow motion to be able to identify any areas of weakness 🤔
The underwater treadmill with its 360 degree viewing allows us to monitor your dogs gait from all angles at all times, which is why we love it so much! 😍

Delta is a collie cross who comes to Canactive for fitness and conditioning sessions 💪🏻
She has a long back for her height and that can mean the core muscles in her back and abdomen need to work harder to keep her balanced 🐕
We use the water in the treadmill at different heights and use different speeds to maximise the benefit of the session to strengthen her core muscles and keep her injury free 👍🏻

Jareth is another lurcher we have in for fitness and conditioning at Canactive 🐕
He’s not overly keen on getting wet but the benefits of his tailored treadmill sessions mean he’s slowly building muscle in a safe way, rather than the zoomies he usually does! 🤦🏼♀️

Donnie’s session earlier this week has had to be tailored to take into account his ongoing recovery from a ligament tear 🤕
He overdid it a bit last week and you could see the difference in his gait, so this week we did a little less and monitored him closely for fatigue 🥱
That’s what’s so great about the treadmill, the total control we have over all the elements, so we can ensure your dog gets exactly what they need when they visit us at Canactive 🤗

Following on from Colonel Bogey on Monday we have a video of Yogi’s session from this week 💦
Does anyone (who doesn’t know him) know what mix of breeds he is?! 🐕🤪

Colonel Bogey is a more unusual breed of dog who came to us at Canactive following a muscle strain to build his strength up for the future 🤗
Does anyone know what breed he is?

Here at Canactive we will always work with your dog as an individual to design them a programme to get the best results for your dog 🐾🐕
By setting a goal and then tailoring the water height, speed of belt and duration of time in the treadmill, you know your dog is working towards the goal with improvements being seen along the way 🤗
Donnie is 12 and recovering from a fore limb tendon injury, so now we are at the point of encouraging more extension in his front legs
to increase the work for him 🐾
The best way to do this for him is to lower the water height as you can see in the video…

Happy Hump Day everyone 🐾🐾
We’ve only got a couple of spaces left for fitness or rehabilitation sessions in October so if you need to book your dog in with us, don’t delay 🤗

Workout Wednesday! Sven wasn't a fan of our treadmill or water in general initially but with the help of cocktail sausages is now showing everyone how its done! Go Sven!! #workoutwednesdays #Canactive #caninehydro #caninehydrotherapy
Turn your volume up for this one! There is nothing more satisfying than a post hydro snooze, listen to those snores! Max was a superstar in hydro today and needed an afternoon rest to recover!
However I think Max was straight back awake once Dinner was served.
