Day 8: Planking on that pink cloud💗🦮✨ The balance disc has been a wonderful tool in rebuilding Weasel’s strength! When we first started, Weasel could balance up a single stair step. Now he’s a pro balancing using his pink cloud🌸 Planks have so many benefits for senior dogs including building core strength, body awareness, and stability while protecting aging joints. A 30-45 second plank a few times a day is all it takes to make a big difference in your senior dogs health! However, that can be a long time if they are new to the exercise. One way to motivate your pup to hold a plank is by using this suctioned lick tray l tray we found at Target😋 We suggest starting with low, stable surfaces as your dog gets familiar with planking. Then over time you can increase the duration, elevation and instability💪 If you’d like to learn more about the simple yet effective moves that helped Weaael regain his mobility at 15 you can access our Pawlates 101 virtual class at the link in our bio🤗 Follow along to see all of our unique paw-lanks this month and tag us in yours with #pawlates And in case you are new here… this is Weasel, a 15 year old golden who is regaining movement through Pilates! Just a few weeks ago he had suddenly and rapidly starting losing control of his hind legs. With guidance from a veterinarian PT and through the power of Pilates, he has been able to regain a lot of his functionality and is making progress daily. I own a Pilates studio on the beautiful island of Oahu where I am fortunate to be able dedicate time each day to helping Weasel heal both outdoors and using this incredible equipment. We are constantly finding new ways to support him, and I am so grateful that it is working🙏 Check out more of Weasel’s journey on my page and follow us if you’d like to keep up with his progress🤍🦮 #dogtherapy #canineconditioning #dogmomlife #seniordogs

Plank of the Day 9: Progressive incline increases for my 15y/o golden💛🐾 Just 5 months ago, Weasel could barely stand. Now he can do THIS! Planks saved his mobility, and we hope to inspire other dog parents to do them with their pups - the earlier the better🤗 Planks have so many benefits for senior dogs including building core strength, body awareness, and stability while protecting aging joints. A 30-45 second plank a few times a day is all it takes to make a big difference in your senior dogs health! We suggest starting with low, stable surfaces as your dog gets familiar with planking. Then over time you can increase the duration, elevation and instability💪 After daily practice since May, Weasel has been able to progress his way up the boxes to the ladder barrel which is rounded on top so a bit more challenging💪 Watch how his hind legs extend further the higher he climbs! Our primary goal here is to not only lengthen the back legs but strengthen, and you can see him get stronger with every attempt🙌 I had him finish on top of the barrel where he can hang (literally) and relax his shoulders and hips while I give him a massage☺️ If you’d like to learn more about the simple yet effective moves that helped Weaael regain his mobility at 15 you can access our Pawlates 101 virtual class at the link in our bio🤗 Follow along to see all of our unique paw-lanks this month and tag us in yours with #pawlates #dogtherapy #canineconditioning #fitdog #pilates
