Senior Dog Massage Workshop
As our dogs grow older, they can experience stiffness, reduced mobility and age-related aches that affect their quality of life. This hands-on workshop is designed to teach you safe, gentle massage techniques that you can confidently use at home to support your senior dog's wellbeing. Whether your dog is slowing down due to age or you simply want to give them the best care possible, this workshop will provide practical skills you can use for years to come.
