Your dog loves you.
More than anything.
But a close second may just
be a relaxing, relieving massage ... especially with
their number one human nearby -- you.
Massage is a holistic form of care that acts upon the entire body in an effort to restore
balance and increase overall wellness.
Regardless of age and ability, your dog can
benefit from regular massage in various ways:
--improved circulation and flexibility
--boosted immune system
--curtailed chance of injury from energetic play
--reduced stress and anxiety
--alleviated joint and muscle pain
--deepened human-dog bond
--comfort at all stages of life
About you
You love, love, loooove your dog.
So you provide your friend all the essentials: food, shelter, medical care.
And all the other essentials: squeaky toys and plush toys and chew toys (an entire living room floor full), a corner of the couch, half your bed, a favorite old blanket, a scrap of your dinner, a lick from your cone, a carob-flavored birthday cake, a second lick of your cone …
And, of course, the most essential of essentials: pats and hugs and coos and kisses and truly affectionate belly rubs, long gazes into the eyes and tender words of affection whispered into those hairy ears.
Because you know dogs are much more emotional than most people think.
You’re not wrong. Studies prove what you already know—that dogs can smile, feel rejection, show love, experience despair, desire compassion … that dogs are, indeed, sensitive beings with feelings.
Another worthy reason to consider rewarding yours with a massage, which can prove beneficial both physically and emotionally.
