Your dog’s harness matters more than you think!

🤔 Imagine putting on a pair of tight, poor fitting shoes and walking 5000 steps everyday - that’s the impact a harness can have on your dog as well!

🐕 Case study: Ollie came to us with some left front limb limping. Our NIMBLE™ assessment revealed left elbow pain, and one culprit was the harness that he has had since young. It restricted shoulder movement, resulting in uneven loading in his elbow joint and pain. After fitting him with a more suitable harness and some physio sessions, Ollie is back to his 3km walks pain-free! Now he continues rehab to strengthen his shoulder muscles and improve his trunk stability 💪🏻

💁🏻‍♀️ NIMBLE Tip: Much like buying shoes, try on the harness and get your dog to walk around a bit before purchasing. A good-fitting harness goes a long long way.

Still not convinced? Or not sure if your dog’s harness fits well? Feel free to drop us a DM. We are happy to help always! 🐾

Collar or harness?

From a physiotherapist’s perspective, that’s rarely the right question.

Most dogs don’t walk in a perfectly loose leash — especially in urban environments like Singapore. When leash tension exists, what your dog wears can influence how their body moves, how load is distributed, and how compensations develop over time.

Free or loose-leash walking is the ideal. It allows the body to move with minimal restriction.

But when that ideal isn’t possible, movement quality matters even more.

That’s why we don’t choose equipment based on trends or brand names. We look at fit, anatomy, walking behaviour, and the environment your dog moves in every day.

There is no universal “best.” What matters is how your dog’s body moves — consistently, comfortably, and symmetrically.

For owners who want a deeper, evidence-informed breakdown, we’ve shared the full article on The Nimble Edit 📖 - https://www.nimblepaws.sg/post/choosing-the-right-walking-equipment-for-your-dog-a-physiotherapist-s-perspective

Dogs rarely show pain clearly — their bodies compensate long before limping begins. Over time, these quiet adjustments can make movement less efficient and place extra stress on the joints and spine.

In physiotherapy, one of the most important things we work on is restoring efficient, well-supported movement — so dogs can move with less effort, fewer flare-ups, and more confidence.

If you’ve noticed subtle changes in your dog’s posture or gait, you’re welcome to send a short walking clip. We’re happy to share what we see! 👀

At Nimble Paws, quality is intentional.

Our rehabilitation team works within clearly defined roles grounded in the internationally recognised CCRP (Certified Canine Rehabilitation Practitioner) competencies.

🔹Your vet is responsible for medical diagnosis, imaging decisions, surgical context, and medical management.
🔹Our physiotherapists lead biomechanical assessment, rehabilitation planning, manual therapy, and safe exercise progression.
🔹Our rehabilitation technicians (veterinary technicians/nurses) support handling and exercise delivery under physiotherapist guidance. They do not conduct independent assessment or treatment planning — this structure keeps rehabilitation safe, appropriate, and within proper scope. They continue developing their skills through a year-long, structured in-clinic mentorship that strengthens clinical reasoning, movement analysis and hands-on skills.

Clear roles create consistent, safe rehabilitation — and every member of our team contributes to the same purpose: providing your pet with the highest standard of care we can 💎

If you’re ever unsure who should be leading your dog’s rehab, just drop us a message — we’re happy to guide!

Nimble Paws turns one today! 🩵

When we opened our doors a year ago, we hoped to create a place where pets could move with confidence again — and where owners felt heard, supported, and empowered every step of the way.

Since then, we’ve had the privilege of walking alongside so many dogs and cats through pain, progress, setbacks, breakthroughs, and the small everyday wins that matter most. Every patient, every owner, every story has shaped who we are becoming.

Thank you for trusting us with your pets’ comfort, their movement, and their milestones.

Thank you for showing up, asking questions, doing the home exercises, and believing that your animals deserve thoughtful, evidence-based care.

As we enter year two, we hold onto what matters:
• Movement as a foundation for wellbeing
• Assessments before assumptions
• Owners as partners, not bystanders
• Progress honoured at each pet’s own pace

Here’s to more movement, more milestones, and more wagging tails! 🐕🐈

Breaking barriers. Empowering movement.
