I message Myndi, my dog, and even tho it's for her own well being, she seems to enjoy it.
At 17 1/2, her legs aren't what they used to be, and walking is more difficult than it once was. Before she even gets up in the morning, I message both of her hind legs and her lower spine, and then roll her over on to her back, and do stretching and range of motion exercises with both legs. Not only does she seem to enjoy it, but it seems to get her moving with more ease, than if I don't do it.
Whatever it takes to keep her going and to be more comfortable - then I'll do it for her.![]()
