After a long day of playing and sleeping, pamper your pooch with a dog massage

Nothing says pampering like a full-body massage. It works out all the kinks and knots, it stimulates blood flow, it soothes sore muscles and it calms and relaxes. But these benefits aren’t just for people – our dogs can get all the same perks from a massage. The best thing is you don’t have to take your pooch to an over-priced spa to get a doggie massage – you can do it yourself! We’re going to give you some valuable tips on how to master the art of dog massage.

Massage is beneficial to all kinds of dogs. It can relieve joint stiffness and soreness, serve as a warm-up for active dogs, calming nervous dogs or just be part of your daily routine. Have you given your dog a massage? Tell us about it. Just leave your thoughts in the comment section below.
