The Dog Paddle Logo


At the Dog Paddle Canine Rehabilitation Centre, we pride ourselves in providing the utmost care to dogs that are rehabilitating from discomfort, injury or surgery.  This is in addition to the maintenance and prevention of all these conditions such as in the case of arthritis. The pool is also available for healthy pets that enjoy swimming.
Opening in 2000, The Dog Paddle Canine Rehabilitation Centre was the first animal swim centre for dogs in Perth. Since then we have added an underwater treadmill.
Staffed only by trained Hydro Therapists, we offer a full range of rehabilitation services.  The Dog Paddle is the only rehabilitation centre in Western Australia that combines a treadmill and hydrotherapy swimming pool.

Rehabilitation Sessions
Massage
      • A gentle all over body massage aids circulation, assists in tissue repair and pain relief.
Passive Range of Motion Techniques
      • These are used to improve motion of joints after surgery or in patients afflicted with chronic conditions.
Therapeutic Strengthening Exercises
      • Enable improved active pain-free range of motion, muscle mass and muscle strength and return to pre-injury mobility.
Hydrotherapy
      • Non-weight bearing exercise aids in the rehabilitation of weak muscles and painful joints.  An all over body workout reconditions and builds patient confidence.
 Hydrotherapy Treadmill
      • Initially non weight bearing conditions are treated with swimming, as the floatation supports the entire body weight and the limbs move freely.  Once weight bearing function improves treadmill sessions can start.  The water level is progressively lowered, reducing the degree of support the water supplies.  As confidence and capability returns to the affected limb, the water then provides resistance and exaggerates the gait to increase flexibility and range of movement.
