    TIPS

    We recommend you get your dog down to your local hydrotherapy pool so they are comfortable and confident in water and alongside their human (it also give you a chance to get your dog sized up for a doggy life jacket)

    We recommend you check your dogs pads and claws a few weeks before. You don’t want to have them clipped the night before as will be sharp and you will get scratched.

    Get yourself to Tri Farm and pass their Health & Safety brief and get used to the surroundings.
