Since I want to make sure I do everything possible to help my Noa, I have recently started hydrotherapy with Noa. 

 

Hydrotherapy for dogs is a form of low impact physiotherapy. In Greek the word hydrotherapy means “Water Healing”.

 

Hydrotherapy for dogs can be used for;

 

- General fitness

- Hydrotherapy for dogs will help with weight loss

- After an injury Hydrotherapy for dogs will aid with medical

   conditions i.e. arthritis

 

Hydrotherapy for dog uses water to enable an animal to move or exercise its muscles and joints whilst its body weight is supported. Hydrotherapy for dogs is particularly useful if animals are sore or lame when trying to walk. Lame animals lose muscle so hydrotherapy for dogs is an easy, affordable way to help your dog regain their muscle.
