  2. Turn East onto South Meadows Pkwy, toward Double R Blvd. You’ll be turning toward Wells Fargo Bank.
  3. Turn left (North) onto Double R Blvd (the second signal).
  4. After about a half mile on Double R, just past Sandhill Rd., look for a light-mustard-colored commercial strip mall on your left, with bluish mirrored panels above the doors. This is our strip mall – 9475 Double R Blvd. At night you can see the Farmer’s Insurance and Red Light Method logos lit up.
  5. Just after crossing Sandhill, turn left into the parking lot, and immediately left again to travel along the building through the parking lot.
  6. Continue through the parking lot – the training center is on your right, unit 12, smack in the middle of the strip mall. Look for the unit number and our logo on the door. We’re between Engage Fitness and Red Light Method.

Massage For Dogs Workshop

Does your dog deserve a little extra TLC? Whether they’re a high-energy athlete, a beloved senior, or just your favorite couch potato, massage can be a wonderful way to enhance their well-being and deepen your bond.

In this hands-on 2-hour workshop, you’ll learn simple massage and stretching techniques that can help your dog relax, relieve muscle tension, and even support recovery after activity. Animal physical therapist Beth Williams will guide you through dog-friendly touch methods and teach you how to recognize your dog’s comfort signals, so every massage feels like a treat—for both of you!  Massage is a wonderful way to teach dogs to value human touch. Prepare for a calming, interactive experience that will leave tails wagging.

No prior experience is needed, and all breeds, sizes, and ages are welcome. Please bring a comfortable dog bed (or two), yoga mat/s, and/or pillows to kneel on, as you and your dog will be on the floor for this class. We are able to accommodate a few clients who have difficulty getting up and down with a massage table, as long as their dogs are under 30 lbs – please let us know when you register if you’d like this option.
