Enhancing the lives of Shelter Dogs -Nelson

Nelson

Every shelter dog deserves a joyful experience, enriching activities, and opportunities to learn new life skills while waiting for their new family. Your donations can help make this possible for fortunate pups.

MaxieMim Performance, in partnership with Walks & Stays, is excited to offer rescue dogs a special K9 pampering session. Walks & Stays will pick up a pup from the Nelson SPCA or another rescue center, providing them with an outdoor walking adventure before heading to MaxieMim Performance for some time in the hydrotherapy pool.

Depending on the dog's needs, they can enjoy safe play in the pool with toys and treats, or perhaps learn to swim with one of our skilled water coaches to boost their water confidence. Some shelter dogs might require assistance with weight management or post-surgery recovery to help regain muscle and stamina.

Additionally, MaxieMim Performance will provide a K9 massage session to pamper these shelter dogs further.

K9 Spa Day: This 60-minute session includes a walking adventure and then coach-led swimming and safe play, followed by a cleansing shampoo and conditioning shower with a massage. The normal cost is $105, but it's offered at a discounted price of $55 for shelter dogs

2.Canine Massage: A relaxing 30-minute massage session, normally priced at $40, now available for $20 for shelter dogs

Buddy  15 December 2024

Buddy is an awesome dog, loves to play and adores people. He will be up for adoption at the SPCA Nelson soon. He started with a walk, and we checked every tree for messages along the way. He found a ball from the toy box which he thought was great, he's very good at catch. The pool wasn't his favourite place but he did spend some time in it cooling off before he decided it was time to play again. We loved having Buddy at the K9 Rescue retreat made possible by donations. Thank you
