Overweight dogs are more likely to suffer from long-term health conditions such as heart disease and diabetes.
Obesity can also greatly reduce the mobility of your dog; leading to problems with joints and muscles and aggravating the effects of old age and arthritis.
The buoyancy and reduced dead weight that a hydrotherapy pool provides enables your dog to get a low-impact, but effective workout; helping to strengthen muscle tone, improve mobility and increase fitness levels.
Weight Loss/Exercise Programme
Tynedale K9 Hydrotherapy will work with you and your veterinary surgeon to design a bespoke weight loss and exercise programme for your dog.
Programme Review
The progress of your dog will be constantly assessed and your veterinary surgeon regularly consulted to ensure the weight loss and exercise programme continues to meet the specific requirements of your dog.
