K9 post-play routine

Dog Post-Exercise Recovery Routine

Short answer: after hard play, work, travel, training, or trail time, walk your dog down, offer water, check movement, then use the right K9 support: Relief Spray for post-play external routines and TheraMud™ when the coat needs a dirty-dog reset.
