Dachshund Preventative Therapy Program

Dachshunds are adorable, small and easy to carry leading many to live a life where their feet rarely touch the ground.  This makes them more prone to becoming overweight  which can lead to major back problems. Bred to be working dogs, their long backbones are not suitable for carrying more than their natural body weight. More often than not Dachshunds do no receive the exercise they need to maintain  healthy body weight which means that far too often Dachshunds suffer from back pain purely because of their weight.

Our Dachshund Preventative Therapy Program provides a variety of balance and core strengthening exercises designed for Dachshunds to help give them the exercise they need. A strong dog with balance and body awareness is less prone to injury. Dachshunds are also by nature intelligent and need mental stimulation as well which exercise therapy can provide.

Each Session includes:

An exercise program specific to your pets needs that provides
balance and core strengthening as well as mental stimulation.

Access to our HydroPhysio Underwater Treadmill, Pit Paws Equipment, and trained staff able to offer instruction for a variety of balance and core strengthening exercises.

as well as tips for exercises you can do at home.

CALL TODAY FOR MORE INFORMATION!

Please consult your Veterinarian before starting any type of exercise program. A release for exercise from your primary care Veterinarian is required for a dog with any prior medical issues.
