We only hire equipment to our clients in greater Christchurch

You must be a client of The Balanced Dog for massage, rehab or fitness training services to be eligible for equipment hire.

Wheelchair measurement and fitting

When a dog is bright and alert but a part of their body has failed, a wheelchair can be the key to ongoing quality of life.

There’s a serious risk of pressure sores, wounds and the risk of causing even more pain if a wheelchair is not properly fitted. A hire chair is a temporary measure only until your dog’s purpose-built cart arrives (or your dog recovers from its injury).

I work with my clients to measure and order their dog’s chair and, once it arrives, I’ll help you fit it and give guidance on its use.  If you are located outside of my local service area, I can consult on wheelchair measurement and fitting using Zoom or Skype.

Greyhound Massage and Stretching Online

There are many greyhounds around the world and most of them can't come to Christchurch to attend our greyhound massage and stretching half-day workshop. So, we filmed a class and designed an online course for you. There are downloads, videos to watch for practice and even a relaxation exercise for owners. We've fast-tracked this course for those around the world in quarantine for Covid-19. Treat your greyhound and yourself by learning new skills. There is also an optional add-on for review of your technique by submitting videos, or through a Skype or Zoom consultation.
