Dog Massage – Indulge Your Dog By Giving Him A Pet Massage (Part 1)
When it comes to loving your dog, this does not mean that you need to show your dog the attention it needs among other things, but it also means indulging him with a good old fashioned dog massage. Just like petting your dog, giving him or her a massage is not just an indulgence, it is also very good for their physical health.
Giving your pet a massage will give him an instant gratification through relaxation and comfort as well as the warmth that your pet feels simply from being loved by his owner. Increased performances of pet massages will lead to an increased desensitizing of your pet to the touch of stranger and as a result, it will help when it comes to things like grooming or even a visit to the veterinarian.
Treating your dog to a relaxing pet massage is an excellent way to bond with him. Not only will he love the way it feels, but he will appreciate the time and attention that you are giving him, a true treat that will make your dog’s heart melt with joy.
Giving your dog a massage is not as hard as one would think; in general form you start from the top of his head and work your way down to the paws and tail.
1). For starters, you need to call your dog to you and command him to sit down in front of you.
2. Ease your way into the massage. Start by giving him a light caress the way you would normally do. This way, he won’t think that you are about to do something different that might probably scare him away.
3). Pet him as normal all over the body using firm and gentle strokes. These long strokes will prepare his body for the massage that you are about to give him. You will want to do this for several minutes prior to working into the actual massage.
4. Put your hands over his head, moving one hand gently underneath his muzzle while your other hand is stroking the top of his head.
5. Next, massage his ears, one ear at a time. Your dog’s ears contain a lot of nerve endings and massaging them will feel very good to him. Do this for at least one minute per ear.
6). Now is for the forehead specifically which you will massage for about 30 seconds before making your way to his cheeks for an additional 30 seconds followed by the muzzle for 30 seconds more.
