| Are You a Pet Parent or a Pet Owner? | |
Today, for many of us our dogs are our family, our furry children. They are more dependent on us than their 2-legged non-furry counterparts and we want them to grow, flourish and live a wonderfully long and happy life. I've heard people use the words "Pet Parent" and "pet owner" interchangeably. While they may seem like the same thing, in our view, they're not. So what is the difference between a Pet Parent and a pet owner? Here's a few examples!

| Our Canine Obesity and Fitness Study is Underway! | |
We are excited to announce that we have our first participant in our canine health and fitness study! Buck, an 8 year old golden retriever, who needs to lose weight, and who has some hip and knee issues. Even though we're only in week 2 with Buck, his "dad" David is already noticing improvement!
If your dog is
- 7 years or older, or
- 5 lbs or more overweight, or
- suffering from arthritis, dysplasia, degenerative diseases, or other bone or joint conditions, or
- struggling to climb into the car or up the stairs
then you NEED to be a part of this landmark study! To learn more please visit www.doghealthfitnessstudy.com or call us at 407-295-3888.

| The Dog Gym at Rocky's Retreat | |
Does your dog need more exercise than you can provide?
Too hot to exercise your dog outdoors?
Is your dog a performance dog?
Are you a member of a health club such as the YMCA, Planet Fitness or Lifestyle? If so, you know the importance of going to the gym to exercise. What about your dog? Until now, there wasn't a gym exclusively for dogs - Now There Is! We designed The Dog Gym at Rocky's Retreat with the best fitness centers in mind.
Come exercise your dog using our state of the art dog treadmill (the same treadmill that's used at Westminster!), our FitPAWS® strength and balance equipment, our indoor warm water pool, and other fitness equipment. Spend time (if you like) with other dog lovers as you exercise your dogs, and then relax on our large covered back porch.
Single "day passes" are available. Unlimited use memberships start at $39.95 per month with no "set-up" fee, no contract, and the membership can be cancelled at any time without penalty. Call for a tour today! 407-295-3888. |
