I'm Angela, canine rehabilitation and core fitness specialist with over 11 years of clinical experience. I work with dogs recovering from injury, dogs in sport, and dogs whose owners want to get ahead of problems before they start. I hold qualifications in core conditioning, small animal rehabilitation, zoopharmacognosy and clinical canine massage, and I'm a Wellbeing Expert and Ambassador for OxyPet and Natures Zest.
Most of what I do comes back to one thing, the dogs that age well, move well, and stay out of my treatment room are the ones with a strong, functional core. That's why I run these challenges.

πΎ THE 3 DAY CORE CONDITIONING CHALLENGE
π
20, 21 & 22 May 2026
Three days. One exercise per day. A new skill for you and your dog every single morning, and a live Q&A with me every evening where we go deeper into the why behind what you're doing.
This isn't just about teaching your dog a movement. It's about teaching YOU to see your dog differently, to understand what their body is telling you, and how to support it.

π BEFORE YOU START β THE PRE-WORK
Before Day 1 I want you to complete the movement assessment and post your results here in the community. Don't overthink it. Just do it as honestly as you can.
Here's why this matters: by the end of three days you will know more. You will see more. Some of you will find your scores actually look worse after the challenge, not because your dog got worse, but because YOU got better at seeing. That shift is exactly the point.
Complete the assessment here and post your results below
