FourLeg: Typing madly before my computer dies!

Published: Mon, 10/17/16

You are receiving this e-blast because you signed up for these e-blasts on FourLeg.com.  If for some reason, this makes you unhappy... then unsubscribe at the bottom.  But for everyone else... HEY!  Let's get on with the show!
I could cry!
Cursed computers!  Why do we have to be so dependent upon them?!!
As I type this I'm in Santa Barbara, California teaching an Advanced Spinal Manual Therapy course!  Fun & Sun!  Yahoo!  But my computer is having some major malfunctioning issues.  Black screen.  Not booting. Freezing!  And it 'died' on me in the middle of a presentation.  Fortunately, I can wing it... and my notes are great - so everyone can follow along even without the slides.  BUT... I am so useless with out a computer!
Looks like I have to go to the Genius Bar when I get home!!!  Ugh!

Anyhoo... I just fired it up tonight just to see if it would have life and "Woo wee!"  It does !  So I am going to madly type what I can so nobody is disappointed (or angry) on Monday morning because they've not heard from me.

And on another note, my Borzoi Breeder / Friend living in my basement MIGHT be moved out by the time I get back home!!!  (I'll believe it when I see it!)  She does have a house in Calgary, but moving into it is a whole other thing!  I'll have to update you next week.  I don't know whether I'll be more surprise if she actually HAS moved or HAS NOT moved!  While it will be nice to reclaim our basement and lives, I think we'll miss her and all of the dogs as well!

Enough about me... and I feel like I'm typing on borrowed time... 

But first, a cartoon!
 
Member's Article:  Protocol for Iliopsoas Strains
This one is for one of my staff physios, Sandra.  You asked for this!  You got it!
 
I've got so many protocols for different post op cases... but something for a common injury such as iliopsoas strains!  Good one! 
 
So, here's my protocol. Feel free to print it out onto your own letter... just leave my copyright!
 
Have fun with it & happy treating the iliopsoas!

Members, login, click articles, scroll down to 'protocols' and check it out there!

Blog: Favourite Vet Marketing Strategies
So I posted on my FourLeg Forum, asking "What are your favourite vet marketing strategies?"  (Strategy being a sequence of events, or a multi-stepped plan).
 
I liked the ideas and answers that I received, so I wanted to share them with everyone as a blog!
Click here to read on!
 
 
And that's a wrap!  So have a great week everyone! 


Until next time... Cheers!

P.S. Helpful Hints for members...
If you are new to FourLeg and happen to be having any issues with watching the videos, you will want to cut and paste the following url into your browser bar:
http://www.fourleg.com
Sometimes after people sign up on the secure page on FourLeg, their computer remembers the secure address for the website (https:), and takes them to the site via that prefix... but the rest of the pages aren't secured, only the sign up page... and if you go to watch the videos on the https:... site, then it won't allow you to watch them. So going to the http:// version will make everything turn out okay!!!

As members, If you are wanting to search a topic... then locate the white search bar in upper right hand side of the screen when you log in & are on the members' side of the site.  This is an easy way to find content in all formats!
