Dorset Aqua Dogs Hydrotherapy Centre was established in 2006 and is a purpose built hydrotherapy pool in the beautiful Dorset countryside. It is easily accessible with good road links via the A31 and A35 and is within easy reach of Poole, Bournemouth, Dorchester, Weymouth, Blandford and surrounding areas. There is plenty of parking directly outside and a large area for toileting your dog pre and post-swim. We pride ourselves in offering a professional, caring and friendly service and are dedicated to providing a stress free environment for the dogs as well as their owners during visits.
