DIY Tripawd Fitness Starts with K9FITBone Exercises and Savings

If your Tripawd seems weak, it’s easy to assume that strengthening your pet’s legs will help your hero get strong. But, that’s not quite the case. Your pet’s core muscles are the best place to focus your early efforts. Thankfully, a DIY Tripawd fitness routine can start with the K9FITBone™ from FitPAWS USA (now on sale for National Canine Fitness Month!).

Tripawds benefit from the K9 FIT Bone!

As we discuss in “Why Longer Walks Won’t Strengthen a Tripawd’s Leg Muscles, walking is great for endurance, but it does not build strength. And that’s exactly what your Tripawd needs to stay balanced in order to eventually go on those longer walks.

Don’t worry, the muscles in your pet’s remaining limbs will get stronger. But the best way to get there is by taking a few minutes each day to practice core strengthening activities. The K9FITBone can do that.

  • Instability training to gain strength, endurance, proprioception, balance and flexibility
  • Provides a low–impact, platform to add full–body conditioning and toning for small and large Tripawds.
  • Features sensory bumps for neural stimulation.
  • Balance challenge can be adjusted by adding more or less air to the platform.

For a rear-leg Tripawd like Wyatt Ray, we put the K9FITBone underneath his front limbs. For a front-leg Tripawd, your rehabilitation therapist would probably recommend putting it underneath the rear limbs.

NOTE: We are not veterinarians. All information provided here is based only on our own experiences caring for Spirit Jerry. Wyatt Ray, and the experiences of other Tripawds members. ALWAYS consult your veterinarian before implementing any new fitness regimen into your Tripawd’s treatment plan.
