Canine Water Treadmill

Our H20 OASIS PRO Canine Water Treadmill features state-of-the-art technology:

• Therapeutic water temperature
• Adjustable water level and current
• Variable incline
• Speeds from 0.2 to 9.0 mph

The underwater treadmill provides limited weight bearing exercise for dogs. The dog is in an enclosed chamber that is filled with warm water to a level determined appropriate for your dog. The deeper the water, the more body weight is supported. The dog walks, jogs or runs on the moving treadmill belt. The speed, incline and water jet resistance may be varied and will be determined by your dog’s fitness and progress. An attendant will be assisting and monitoring your dog throughout each session.
We offer individual sessions or package deals.

The benefits of water treadmill work are tremendous:

• Increases endurance, strength, flexibility and coordination
• Improves range of motion and mobility
• Minimizes impact on joints
• Enhances cardiovascular and respiratory systems
• Boosts canine sports training
• Reduces stiffness and soreness
• Accelerates weight loss
• Provides safe, comfortable exercise during inclement weather

Important Notes

• If your dog is over 8 years old or is currently being treated for a medical or surgical condition, you must complete a veterinary input form to use the treadmill (see link below to print the form). Fill out the top portion of the form and check your reasons for considering water treadmill exercise. Then have your vet fill out and sign the bottom portion. You can bring this form and your completed client info and waiver form (see link below) with you when you come in for your first appointment.
• All dogs will be required to complete an initial assessment on their first visit to determine their level of fitness and develop a training plan.
