Swimming Lessons                                         

 

Swimming is an excellent exercise to burn energy and have fun.  Swimming assists in building and maintaining muscle for young dogs and provides a safe workout for dogs with arthritis and other joint concerns.   

 



​

Confidence Building                                         

 

Confident dogs are less reactive to noises and stress.   Confidence building can be a great deal of fun for owners and their dogs. Exercises involve climbing, tunnels, leaping, and other exercises designed to build confidence while strengthening the dog-owner bond.
