Golden Retriever (detail introduction)
In fact, dogs, like humans, often have emotional tension, excessive stress, fatigue, and poor mood. I believe that the owner must know that massage can help dogs to relieve the discomfort of the body and relax the muscles. The blood circulation of the whole body is smooth to eliminate fatigue. Let's understand the reasons and methods of dog massage.
1. The reason for helping dog massage
1. Another tension dog
When the thunder makes your dog sobbing, panting, and hiding under the bed, what can you do to make it not so nervous?
This answer may be massage. Relax the nervous system in a similar way to touch. Gently flatten your palms flat on the dog's head or neck, gently touch the spine to touch the tail, and repeat it many times. If your dog likes such a massage method, you can gradually increase force. After the massage is completed, let one hand be placed below the dog's head and the other hand is under the pelvis. The corresponding part of the two parts should control the spinal nerve where the rest and relaxation of the body's reaction. This step is very helpful when your dog is nervous or scared because of trimming nails or vaccination, or when it is emotionally restless or uneasy.
2. Increase blood circulation
Massage helps vascular dilation and improves blood circulation. The blood circulation is improved, and more oxygen and nutrition can follow the blood of the dog. In addition, if you strengthen blood flow, you can excrete more pupae and toxins that may cause dogs to get sick.
3. Warm up for lively dogs
When you go out to do exercise, you may often hear people persuade you to say that warm -up exercise is important. In fact, lively dogs love competition, running, playing with the owner, or just working hard. They should also have a good warm -up exercise to avoid injuries.
4. Improve muscle health
If the dog's muscles are in a state of tension for a long time, it may begin to have difficulty in standing, walking or running. Because the blood flowing to the muscle is reduced, it is more likely to feel that muscles are tightened, stiff, and even painful. Massage can relieve tension and shrink muscles, reduce pain, and make the dog more flexible and restore.
5. Relieve joint stiffness and soreness
If you take the dog to the park for several hours on the weekend and climb the mountain for another day on Sunday, then the dogs look less active on Monday!
Do the dogs come out to drink water or refuse to play with you? Indeed, the dog consumes too much physical strength in the short term, or the dog is old, which will cause the dog's pain, joints, and muscle stiffness. If you want to help the dog alleviate the joint stiffness and soreness, please start touching the joint junction at the joint, organize the joints with warm joints, and then cover your hands on the joint coexistence of the joints to gently pressure.

In addition, the massage method is also a platform for cultivating the emotional exchange between dogs and owners.
