What should I be mindful of before my dog's massage?
It's best to take your dog out for a walk and a bathroom break prior to the massage session. It's best not to feed your dog for at least 90 minutes before its massage treatment and only a light meal at that time.
What should I be mindful of after my dog's massage?
You will need to encourage your dog to drink as much water as possible. Giving your dog coconut water after a massage session is also an excellent approach. Since massage aids in the elimination of bodily waste products and toxins, your dog may need a bathroom break sooner than later after the massage session!
