Commando Crawl Therapeutic Exercise - Dog Physical Rehabilitation
Like 0 Dislike 0 Published on 27 Jul 2015
The Commando Crawl is great for strengthening the shoulders and stretching out the back. Sometimes when dogs are in pain or off-weighting a leg, they develop a hunched posture in their backs. This can lead to back problems and other compensatory actions. We want to make sure that they have the appropriate posture so they can be as comfortable and healthy as possible.
These exercises are a great way to physically condition your dog but also help strength your bond with them and provide them with mental stimulation. Exercises should only be performed after receiving a diagnosis and prescription for physical rehabilitation from a licensed veterinarian to ensure that the exercises are safe for your pet's particular condition.
