We're closed for the holiday but I stopped by work anyway. Brought the crew with me and Faye got to do some exercises with our fitpaws equipment, which she really enjoyed.

I also let them loose on the big floor and Faye immediately solicited play from Forte. It was really cute and I'm glad I was able to capture it.

You had mentioned awhile back that you massage and stretch your dogs because Sig seemed to feel a little better after his soft tissue injury so you kept doing it. What kind of exercises do you do?

We do a couple basic exercises, with shoulder flexor stretches being the main one for Sigurd. They are described in THIS veterinary article along with a couple other stretches I do.

THIS chart by FitPaws is a great resource with good photo examples of each aspect of the stretch. I particularly like how they show flexion, extension, and abduction for each. Stretches of these kinds are what I do on each dog after extensive exercise since it’s very easy to do once they’re relaxed post workout. I should do it pre-workout more but it’s difficult when they’re excited.

My vet also recommended what she calls “bicycle stretches” where you slowly rotate the limb in a natural movement. We do this for Sigurd more so that the other dogs.

We ended up with a FitPaws balance disc but I found some cheaper stuff on Amazon to do her exercises with

i have had these fitpaws discs for literal MONTHS sitting unopened in the entryway bc i felt so guilty for buying them and thought every single day about returning them. finally i decided, fuck it, i’m keeping them. my dogs both love conditioning and so do i. it’s one of the training activities i find easiest to do with some semblance of consistency and i miss bazzy’s muscles so.......they’re here to stay.

also look how cute sivi is workin his wittle toesies. hims feeties are tryin so hard.
