Not a member yet? Why not?! Affordable & Expansive Learning to be had! What's new? I'm down to the wire in getting ready for Christmas... I am sure that I am missing lots... but between now and Christmas, I guess I'll just have to get it figured out! I actually have the week off! I have NEVER had the week off at Christmas. Not even when the kids were little! I'm hosting a Christmas Day brunch with my Mom and my family,
and then the In-laws on Boxing Day. That's the big one - 16 - 20 people. I hope I remembered everything on the grocery list! It seems that half the time I go shopping with the list, I lose the list somewhere in the store. Nothing incriminating on this list, thank goodness! Okay, I had better get back on track - baking, cleaning, preparing, wrapping, last minute shopping, etc!! Have a wonderful week everyone! Enjoy the holidays and a little
bit of down time. On with the show...

FOUR LEG TRAINING VIDEO # 246
A Day In The Life (of me, at my clinic)
|
|
|
|
Time for honesty... I've had this video on the back burner for a bit, to be able to use when I was behind in getting you guys some new content. As I was madly trying to film a different video for this month... I ran into plenty of road blocks (Christmas preparation and the clinic computer crash). So, I figured that this might be the perfect time to insert this little video. It's a day at my clinic,
highlighting the various dogs I might see in a day. Maybe you won't learn anything... but maybe you'll see something that gets your brain spinning. Who knows. Maybe it's a video you only watch after too many eggnogs! Anyways! Enjoy! Check it out the VIDEO!! Login. It should be right there. Or, Go to Video Training, scroll to the bottom and find it there!

Boxer's Knuckles in Dogs
|
|
|
|
Have you heard of Boxer’s Knuckles? I have to admit, I had never heard of it. I guess, I never treated any Boxers when I was treating people. According to the Orlando Hand Surgery Associates1, it is defined as follows:
Boxer’s Knuckle is an injury that affects the structures around the first knuckle, specifically the
metacarpophalangeal joint (MPJ). This condition commonly involves damage to: Skin; Extensor tendon; Ligaments; Joint cartilage and; Metacarpal head bone. Repeated impacts to the extensor tendon over the knuckle can lead to Hypertrophic Interstitial Tendonosis (HIT Syndrome). An off-center hit can tear the sagittal bands, causing the extensor tendon to slip off the knuckle and lie between them. These ligament tears result in joint instability. Did you know that Common Digital Extensor Tendon (CDET) injury has been reported in dogs, with a similar pathology as described in human athletes with boxer’s knuckles? Well, it has! Franini and Grazia Entani (2022) presented a case series of three dogs with common digital extensor tendon injuries.

Have You Checked it Out?
|
|

For over a year, I worked with Physiotec (an online exercise platform) to create a exercise prescription platform for canine rehab practitioners. And this is it!
I've put hundreds of exercises together onto this handy platform. You can find the exercises, print off a handout, send them a link to the VIDEOS of the exercises.
There's so much: Massage, owner-friendly joint therapies, exercises, advisement, etc, etc!
NOW... be aware that this platform is run by / owned by Physiotec (and they charge separately for it's use)... and the support for the website is via physiotec as well. The MAIN GLITCH I am finding now... is that when you e-mail or call tech-support you will NEED to LET THEM KNOW that your question
pertains to FOURLEGEXERCISE! (Otherwise, it's a bit of a schmozzle to get sorted, because they direct you to the Physiotec website vs FourLegExercise website!!!) Check it out and LET ME KNOW (what you think, your experiences, etc... so that I can report back if there are issues!)
I hope you find it useful! Go there... Check it out!!!

Have a great week everyone! Until next time... Cheers! Laurie
