Is your dog ARTHRITIC? Do you have a SENIOR DOG who is less active?
FitPAWS® Equipment can be an integral part of general wellness, weight loss, and athletic conditioning programs. Adding strengthening activity to your dog’s activities 2-4 times a week has many benefits, including:
- Increased trunk and core strength
- Strengthening the bond with your dog through interactive positive training
- Stabilization of weak areas
- Improved balance and awareness of the body’s position in space
- Improved reaction and control
- Increased range of motion in joints and elongation of the muscles
If you can only afford a few sessions a week with our trainers, we make it easy for you to continue the prescribed canine therapeutic exercises at home by teaching you to use a few integral pieces of the FitPAWS® equipment. t’s a great opportunity to train with positive reinforcement and strengthen the bond between you and your dog while giving your dog a complete overall body workout. Your dog will love you for it.
