What are the benefits of my pet swimming in the Canine Aquatic Fitness Center?

Swimming is beneficial to dogs in so many ways! The buoyancy & resistance of water allows them to exercise more freely, while lessening stress on joints. Water can decrease inflammation, increase circulation, and increase range of motion as the environment can enhance stretches and movements. Swimming provides a great way to improve your pet’s fitness, body condition, and it is a great form of aerobic exercise that is low impact on the bones and joints. Swimming can also increase body awareness, balance, coordination, and just plain help muscle and fitness tone.
