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! My week has been insane!!
I couldn't make up this stuff up if I tried! Seriously!
1. So last Monday, a truck was stolen from one of the farm yards on the ranch. It ended up being part of a massive crime spree (other vehicles stolen, bear spray being used on pedestrians, a police vehicle being rammed, stuff stolen, etc...!) I got the word out on social
media, which helped to relocate the truck. As well, the police came through, and 5 arrests have been made so far!
2. My son took the hired hand into the police station to make his statement about the incident the following day and on the way home, a new driver pulled out in front of him and damage was done to both vehicles. So now the ranch is down 2 trucks!!! (PS Nobody was hurt, and my son was not
at fault.)
3. Tuesday as well, a neighbour brought me an 'animal appendage' to examine that our farrier had found and was driving around with in the back of his truck. (The farrier had found it in his field while fixing some fence. He had been showing it to everyone to try and figure out what kind of animal it belonged to.) The neighbour he gave it to does movie special effects and was keen to
use it, but I had other ideas about what it might be, from photographs alone. Well... it is / was a human hand. No kidding!!!! So, in my freezer for a couple of days has been a human hand! There until the farrier came by to take it into the police for them to investigate.
4. On the fun side, I managed to get to a CFL football game on Saturday night.
Didn't I ask for a boring week???? This was NOT it!
Okay... enough about me, onto your learning for the week...

For over a year now, I've been working with Physiotec (an online exercise platform) to create a prescription exercise website 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!

P.S. Are you looking to include SHOCKWAVE in your practice?
|
I have just the thing! I highly recommend the unit that I have and use at my clinic. And now, I can bring it to you!
And if you're interested, give me a shout and I'll happily send along all of the details. RADIAL SHOCKWAVE rules! I am loving it as an adjunct to my other therapies, and am seeing amazing results with it when used on osteoarthritis, tendinosis lesions, and lumbosacral disc disease. (There are more things it can treat, but these three things keep it hopping
at my clinic!)
The price is right (in Canadian Dollars), and I can ship anywhere in North America. (For those of you overseas, I can put you in touch with local distributors nearer to you!)
Okay... so check it out if you've ever been interested!

P.S. Helpful Hints for NEW Members...
1. If you are new to FourLeg and happen to be having issues with watching the videos, you will want to
cut and paste the following URL into your browser bar:
Sometimes after people sign up on the secure page on FourLeg, their computer remembers the secure address for the website (i.e.
https:// etc), and it takes them to the site with THAT prefix. The rest of the site isn't 'secured, only the sign up page. So, the website thinks you are trying to watch a video from unauthorized site.
2. As a member, if you want to search a particular topic, then find the little white search bar
on the upper right hand corner of the page (after you log in as a member). Type in your search and be given a full listing of content related to your search words!
3. And, if you have any issues, check out WWW.FOURLEG.COM/Help to address any FAQs regarding the website or membership difficulties!
