Halloween Costume Contest!!
We would love to see your pup’s costumes! We will take photos when they arrive, and relieve them of their outfits if needed. The photo that gets the most “likes” on social media will be the winner of this year’s costume contest. The prize is an AWESOME gift basket (valued at $150) that will be displayed at the daycare next week!

Through direct work on the dog's soft tissues, massage benefits include:

Improves digestion
-
Increases oxygenation of the blood
-
Lowers blood pressure
-
Pain relief
-
Alleviates stress
-
Helps heal sprains and strains
-
Improves flexibility
-
Improves immune system
-
Reduced age-related issues
-
Reduced arthritis and hip dysplasia discomfort
-
Muscle tension, soreness,tightness, weakness and spasm relief
Implementing canine massage therapy along with professional veterinary care can reduce recovery time from injuries.
