SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER STAFF
Family dog looking a little stressed? A bill passed by the state House yesterday would give owners a new resource for pampering pets: licensed animal massage therapists.A common practice in the horse-racing industry, animal massage is starting to make its way into the lives of household pets.
The bill that passed the House unanimously would allow animal massage therapists to gain formal state recognition. The bill specifies that animal masseuses cannot diagnose or treat injuries or illnesses and requires 100 hours of combined training and experience before a therapist can be licensed.
