Canine Massage - Good for your Senior Dog

As we continue to celebrate and honor senior dogs, it is important to recognize their special needs and steps we can take as canine parents, caregivers, and friends to make their lives more comfortable. 

Fenway Bark will offer therapeutic massage by trained canine physical and massage therapists for the trained healing and comfort of your dog, particularly dogs who have injuries, disorders, such as arthritis, that impair function and cause pain or loss of function.

As a thoughtful dog parent, there are massage techniques you can use now to make your pet more comfortable.  Take a moment to watch the video and try the techniques with your fuzzy friend.  Pay attention to your pets reaction to your touch and your techniques and note what appears to be pleasurable.  Massage. Relax. Repeat.

More massage techniques are available on the FenwayBark You Tube channel.
