Happy grateful holiday! from K9 Fitness Works! Have a wonderful day!
As a Veterinary Technician I'm choosing NO on our states veterinary professional choice because it impacts the field of veterinary medicine. As a profession we care about protecting the health, well-being and high standards of care for animals health. This has a lot of holes in it and you can listen to my live and how we can help the veterinary profession with the technicians we already have.

Pool time!!
Makoa loves when the pool comes out for summer! It is good training for dogs that are unsure about water. It allows them the chance to check it out in a safe place. K9 Fitness dog park a safe place where you and your dog can play or train. Time specific for only you and your dog. Maybe you bring a friend to play too!
Link in the bio for fitness dog park information.
Does your dog love water?

Thank you to everyone that came out to play with us at the #firehydrant5k yesterday to support @nocohumane . We loved seeing all your pups working through the obstacle course, talking about how to keep your pup's happy, and sharing canine fitness.
Thank you to everyone that came out to help with the event! You are all amazing and awesome people!
My healing body is very sore today and will be resting the rest of the weekend.

Business collaborations support each business and the community.
I'm grateful for @pet_groomer_marlene bringing her table to help me with a client today. My knee is still very swollen and my mobility is limited. I wanted to keep my appointment with this client as they are an older dog. I keep the nails trimmed as well as energy and laser work to keep her mobile.
When businesses help each other they are also helping the community to have a better life with their dog. The bonus was that we had to try out the table and makoa also got a nail trim. Although she was questioning why the grooming table had come to her place even though she loves Marlene.
Thank you Marlene! The best groomer ever!

I recently had a fast and furriest experience that I will share with all of you more soon.
That experience overwhelmed me by a deep sense of emotion. It was a feeling so profound, it brought tears to my eyes. It was joy—pure, unadulterated joy—mingled with a twinge of disbelief.
In the week that followed, I realized something profound: Dogs, live in a perpetual state of joy. They expect it, embrace it, and share it freely with those around them. And you know what? We deserve that same abundance of joy in our lives every single day.

Makoa and I, also @health_warrior_jenn, embarked on a gravel bike trip to Fruita CO. A very long road trip and new expenses for her. We both lived in joy by learning new things together ❤. Makoa
How do you experience joy with your dog?

Snow Day! In spring...
You may be new to this corner of the internet, and I want to welcome you! I created the private K9 Fitness Dog Park for dogs and their people to feel safe when playing.
Did you know that I go out and clean all the snow off the equipment? Once the sun comes out the equipment will be dry for you and your pup to play.
Some pups like to play in the snow and mudd and that is ok too. Make sure to bring towels and maybe a mudd buster. Be aware of possible injuries from the loose snow and mud.
It is National Canine Fitness Month, if you DM us PARK we will send you $10 off a park membership this month.
