1-day Massage Workshop

I believe that dog massage is an essential part of total pet health care, helps to improve the connection between the pets and their owners. The special benefits make the massage an unmissable treat for the active sport dogs and gives them longer, healthier life in the competitive scene.

Each workshop is limited to small groups and you will learn in a hands-on environment how to get the most value for you and your dog. The price is £95.
