Kristina’s journey into pet fitness began with her beloved puggle, Samson. At 16.5 years old, Samson unexpectedly became paralyzed due to a severe herniated disk in his neck (C2/C3). Despite his age, Samson’s overall health made him a candidate for emergency surgery. Following the procedure, water therapy became a cornerstone of his recovery and fitness routine.
The results were remarkable—Samson not only regained mobility but also shed 5 pounds, reaching a healthy weight for his stature. Witnessing the transformative impact of fitness-focused programs, Kristina became passionate about helping other pet owners provide their dogs with opportunities to thrive, no matter their age or fitness level. She founded The Pet Gym to offer a safe and professional environment for pets to stay active, healthy, and happy.
