Exercise

Exercise is often neglected as a fundamental component of an animal's physical and mental health.    Exercise can be anything from passive range of motion (stretching), planned leash-walking and structured play time to swimming, laser-pointer chases for cats, fetch for retrievers, or any other creative approach that fortifies animal-owner bond, pet well-being and animal conditioning.   Exercise type, duration and frequency should be tailored to the owner and animal's lifestyle.   Our recommendations involve consulting with the client about necessary changes that will improve the animal's health.
