About Canine Aquatic Center

Overview

Canine Aquatic Center is an indoor aquatic facility in Evansville that opened in 2019, run by Janice Stamps, PT, CCAT and Laura, PTA, CCAT. Its services are exclusively water-based: aquatic therapy, post-surgery and injury rehabilitation, weight management, cardiac rehabilitation, chronic pain management, and recreational swimming.

Approach

The center explains that "water provides a controllable environment for dogs that are non-weight bearing or have limited weight-bearing ability," positioning the work as physical rehabilitation rather than behavior or obedience training.

Credentials

Both staff are Certified Canine Aquatic Therapists, with backgrounds as a licensed Physical Therapist and a licensed Physical Therapist Assistant, plus aquatic therapy certification from the International Aquatic Therapy Rehab Institute. Owners seeking obedience or behavior training should look elsewhere, as this is a specialized hydrotherapy clinic.
