This involves purpose built pools that allow safe, carefully controlled swimming.Swimming helps to build up muscle mass, which is useful for supporting joints. It is a low impact form of exercise so it won’t aggravate your dog’s joints.Your vet will know a centre where such a service is available.Ask your vet if they think acupuncture would help.
