Water does the heavy lifting
Warm water supports up to 60% of your pet’s body weight, soothes sore muscles and adds gentle resistance — so they can build strength with far less pressure on their joints.
Arthritis
Warmth eases stiffness while easy swimming keeps joints moving and muscles strong.
Post-surgery
Safe, low-impact rebuilding after cruciate, hip or spinal surgery — always with your vet’s go-ahead.
Weight
Burns more energy than a walk, without pounding already-tired legs.
Confidence
Nervous or wobbly pets learn to trust their bodies again, one paddle at a time.
What a session looks like
- 1
Hello & check-in
A quick chat about the week, a sniff around and a gentle look at how they’re moving today.
- 2
Vest on, slow entry
A fitted life vest and a ramp into the warm pool — no jumping, no splashing in at the deep end.
- 3
Swim or treadmill work
20–25 minutes of guided exercise, with Priya in the water and plenty of rests (and treats).
- 4
Rinse, towel & dry
A warm rinse and a cosy blow-dry, so they leave fluffy instead of soggy.
- 5
Notes to take home
A short progress note and one or two easy exercises to do on your daily walks.
“Water takes the weight off sore joints, so dogs who struggle on land suddenly feel strong again. Seeing that moment never gets old.”
Made for paddlers of every kind
