For Independent Hydrotherapists

Infrastructure-as-a-Service for Canine Rehabilitation

The Doggies Furever Wellness Centre (the trading name of DFHG Feltham Ltd, part of Doggies Furever Hydrohub Group Ltd) is not a clinic. We do not employ therapists, treat dogs, or manage clinical appointments.

We are a co-working infrastructure provider, the WeWork of canine hydrotherapy, but with a critical difference: our members are highly qualified, independent, regulated professionals who bring their own client base.

We build, own and maintain the specialist wet facility. They keep 100% of their treatment fees.

We Build
Doggies Furever Wellness Centre fits out the full wet-side facility, pools, treadmills, filtration, red light therapy, and NFC access, so members never touch capex or maintenance.
🔑
They Access
Qualified, independent NARCH/CHA/IAAT-registered hydrotherapists pay £550–1,000/month via the Hydrohub App. NFC gate locks ensure only booked members enter. Real-time availability, zero phone calls.
💰
Everyone Wins
Therapists keep 100% of treatment fees. Doggies Furever Wellness Centre collects predictable subscription revenue. Vets get a consistent and reliable referral destination. Dog owners get faster post-surgical rehabilitation.
For Independent Hydrotherapists

Your Suite. Your Brand. Your Clients.

We asked independent hydrotherapists what would put them off a shared facility, and we built the answer into the model. DFHG is infrastructure, not a competing clinic: we never treat dogs, never take a cut of your fees, and never come between an independent practitioner and their clients.

🔒
Your Own Private Suite
Every pool and treadmill sits in its own NFC-gated suite, not an open-plan pool hall. You and your client are never sharing a room with another therapist mid-session, and dogs are never exposed to a busy, unfamiliar shared space.
🏷️
Your Brand Stays Yours
This is a co-working infrastructure provider for independent practitioners, not a clinic brand competing with you. There's no shared reception funnelling clients between therapists, no in-house treatment team, and no attempt to build a client base that competes with yours.
🩺
Referrals Go Directly to You
The vet referral portal routes each referral straight to a named independent hydrotherapist by expertise, not to a shared queue. A vet's referral, and any client who mentions your name to another owner, is tracked back to you specifically, not lost in a general pipeline.
🏢

“It sounds corporate”

We're the landlord, not the competitor. As an independent practitioner, you trade under your own name, at your own prices, with your own client base. Members sign a professional code of conduct: no competing for the same dog in the corridor.

🧭

“Where do my referrals end up?”

Everywhere they arrive, they arrive to you. Bookings, vet referrals, reminders and rebooking links all carry your name. A referral can never be quietly reassigned to another therapist.

🐕

“Will dogs settle there?”

Sessions run in private, NFC-gated suites, not an open-plan pool hall. Scheduling avoids adjacent sessions where possible, and anxious dogs can be booked into guaranteed low-traffic windows.

🪨

“Who's responsible for shared spaces?”

Each suite is booked and locked to one independent hydrotherapist at a time. A cleaning protocol between sessions is logged in the app, and equipment condition is photo-checked at check-in and check-out.

🚪

“What about walk-in clients?”

There aren't any. Every dog arrives pre-booked to a named therapist. If someone enquires at reception, they're directed to a member's own booking page, never handed to a competitor.

🤝

“Will it undercut established independents?”

Memberships are capped per catchment, and we don't advertise treatment services to the public; we advertise our independent members. Overflow enquiries are passed to members, not absorbed.

Straight answers

Who owns the client relationship?

You do, completely. Client records, clinical notes and consent live with you. DFHG holds no client data for marketing and never contacts your clients except through your own bookings and reminders.

Can I set my own prices and branding?

Yes. Your clients pay you, at your rates, under your business name. Membership is a flat monthly subscription; there is no per-treatment commission or fee split.

What happens if a dog arrives who isn't suitable for the booked equipment?

Your clinical judgement is final. You can switch the session to a pool, consult room or red-light room subject to availability, all bookable on the spot in the app. No one at the hub overrides a treatment plan.

What does £550/month actually get me?

480 monthly credits covering roughly 48 pool/treadmill sessions, plus consult rooms, red-light therapy, wash/dry rooms and land rehab space. Try the live wallet simulator below to see exactly how a month of bookings consumes credits.

Am I tied in long-term?

No. Membership is designed as a rolling monthly agreement, so you can scale up, scale down, or leave as your practice grows, including graduating to your own premises with your client base fully intact.

I'm employed elsewhere. Is this realistic as a first step?

That's exactly who this is for. The facility removes the two barriers that stop employed hydrotherapists going independent: capital cost and referral infrastructure. Location, flexibility, and opening hours were the top priorities raised, and the app gives you 24/7 booking control.

For Vet Practices

Refer once. Track it to the last paddle.

One referral destination for the whole catchment, but every referral is tagged to a named, qualified independent hydrotherapist, matched by specialism, with status updates returned to your practice automatically.

🎯

Named-therapist routing

Referrals are matched to a specific therapist's specialism, never dropped into an anonymous queue. You always know exactly who is treating your patient.

📋

Status back to your practice

Submitted → verified → accepted → booked → completed, with discharge notes returned to the referring vet. No chasing phone calls.

⚡

Capacity when you need it

2 hydrotherapy pools and 7 underwater treadmills under one roof mean shorter waiting lists for post-surgical cases.

💉

You keep clinical control

Treatment plans are set by the therapist; you remain the referring vet throughout. RCVS number verification is built in.

Our Flagship Site

Doggies Furever Wellness Centre

West and South West London has the highest concentration of insured dogs and qualified hydrotherapists in the UK outside Central London. Richmond, Twickenham, and Isleworth are among the UK's highest-spending, dog-owning postcodes.

Feltham is our flagship, the first site to open. It won't be the last: further hubs are planned across the M25 corridor as membership grows, so if you're not near Feltham today, we're likely building near you next.
