Working dogs really are hard working dogs, their stamina and strength put most humans to shame. They are physically and mentally strong, and fit. All their training, exercises and hard work does take its toll on their muscular system, especially if they are repetitively using the same motions to undertake their job.
Depending on the type of work your dog does will dictate which muscle groups are primarily affected, whether it be Tracking, Searching, Criminal pursuit, Quartering, Retrieving etc. there are certain muscle groups that will be more susceptible to injuries, such as sprains and strains, than others.
If your dog starts to display some changes such as slowing down, inability to focus, reluctance to chase, backing away, unable to hold bite or starts to lack enthusiasm, to name but a few, then it could be that they are harbouring pain.
The Canine Bodywork Clinic (CBC) aims to address any of the above issues, ensuring the well-being of your dog is cared for naturally, and restore them back to their hard-working self.
