This course is designed to help you implement a puppy fitness programme from the comfort of
your own home. The course will require approximately 15 minutes per week of online learning
which will include a number of exercises requiring 15 to 20 minutes two to three times per week,
starting from week 5.
The exercises build on one another and increase weekly in terms of effort and skill required
by both you and your puppy. With our guidance and regular effort every week, you can help your
puppy develop core strength, hindlimb awareness and mental agility, which will set your puppy up for
success in adult life.
All exercises will be explained in step by step fashion, along with what to look for when doing the
exercise correctly.
Our primary goal is to help prevent injury, delay the progression of congenital diseases, improve
body awareness, increase confidence and curb bad habits which may have negative consequences
later in life.
This course is designed for anyone who wants to compete in any sport with their dog such as
agility, herding, IPO, or flyball. Or for those weekend warriors who enjoy taking their dogs
for runs, hiking or long walks. People who have show dogs who desire to improve their dogs
gait, standing and general performance in the show ring. This course is also designed for people
who are raising breeds of dogs which may be susceptible to diseases such as Hip and Elbow Dysplasia,
Cranial Cruciate Ligament Disease, Patellar Luxation and IVDD. Or those who have little time and need
a programme which can be completed from the comfort of their home in under 20 minutes a
day.
