Massage and stretching build contact between you and your dog in a natural way. Massage is an enjoyable way of strengthening the bond with your family dog. Apart from the physical and psychological effects, you familiarise the dog with being handled and this can be of great value in other situations. As a dog owner you can massage and stretch your dog’s muscles regularly. This enables your dog to maintain good health longer through life and improves the quality of your dog’s life. The risk of injury is substantially reduced and you may be able to detect changes in your dog’s health before they can be seen. Massage and stretching will give you a happy and healthy canine friend. Your dog will want a massage and will no longer be content with random rubbing and nether will you. In this colourful book you will learn the basics of dog massage and stretching in a simple step by step manual. The authors are licensed dog physiotherapists and treat dogs with muscle, tendon, joint and cartilage related problems.
"Overall Rating: 10/10. I especially liked the way that enjoyment and partnership are stressed...[the authors] are quite obviously dog owners themselves who enjoy the company of their dogs." -- Brenda Tenten, www.agilitynet.com, May 2005. "This book will certainly strengthen the bond between you and your best friend!" -- Pedigree Dogs, 2005. "Littered with easy to follow illustrations and practical 'how to' examples, it would be impossible to believe any dog owner could read this book without immediately wanting to apply its advice to their own grateful canine friends." -- K9 Magazine.
