Some dogs can be more anxious than others. This can be influenced by a range of things such as being rehomed, moving house or a new family member.
Relaxation massage can be beneficial to your dog to help them relax by activating their parasympathetic nervous system. This can lower their heart rate, increase their relaxation and release their feel good hormones.
