Door 10 🚪 ♥️ In memory of our pets who have passed 🐾
Today we are remembering beloved pets who have passed this year by donating a Christmas meal to a homeless dog in their honour.
A small act of kindness, inspired by big love. 🤍
To ensure we can manage this properly, we’ll be capping donations at 50 meals. Once we reach this number, we’ll update this post.
Thank you for helping us turn remembrance into kindness this Christmas. 🎄

The ever majestic Harley was back for his pre Christmas therapy session! We love this long boy (and we had to go landscape to fit in all of his fabulousness) 😍
As you can see, Harley is demonstrating for us perfectly that acupuncture treatments can be super relaxing for our pets and more often than not results in a nap! He received a needling session to help with lumbar discomfort followed by a relaxing laser session and as always was a tremendously good boy🩷

This is super important and ahead of our pool opening it’s vital we consider each patient and their suitability based on their individual needs… 🐾

A physio assessment prior to swimming is crucial as it tells us what we need to know about your dogs mobility and if there are any concerns that could potentially be exacerbated or worsened by free/fun swimming. Identifying a mobility deficit or pain doesn’t always mean no swimming allowed, it may mean a medical swim is more suited to your dog, or further rehab support can be provided. Either way we will be able to offer you a service that fits their needs, and most importantly is safe 🐶 🩷

Myth: “Swimming is always safe for arthritic dogs.”

FACT: Hydrotherapy can be brilliant, but uncontrolled free swimming can flare pain, especially in dogs with poor core strength or spinal arthritis.

If you're interested in tailored advice for your dog, our Teleguidance service is for you!

Happy Monday! Not long now until Santa Paws makes his rounds 🎄🐾 And we’re just as excited to be opening the pool🥰
Designed with fun swims in mind, it’s a space for dogs to splash, move, and enjoy being active in a safe, supported environment, the perfect way to start the new year on a happy, healthy note.
For dogs where fun swimming isn’t the right fit, we’ll also be offering more comprehensive assessments to ensure every pet gets the care and support best suited to them.
Opening soon, and we can’t wait to welcome your dogs in for their first swim of the year. 🐶 💦
