Just a couple of updates:
I came home from New Jersey with a cold! "American germs!!" Oh dear!!
;)
This has meant that I've not gotten as much done this past week as I would have liked to. Oh, and we had another dumping of snow on the weekend. About 2.5 inches (6+cm)!!! What the heck! This is not fair... or really expected for May up here! Where's my spring!??! I want spring already!!!
Okay, that's what I've been up to!

A colleague asked me the following question:
Hey Laurie,
Do you have any experience lasering dogs with discitis? I have been looking for an article about discitis and laser and sadly there is nothing out there. I know it is ok to laser if there is an infection, however my concern is that because I do not
understand what the laser does to infection cells and the infection was located within an enclosed space is there any risk of kick starting the infection.
Thanks heaps for your help 😊 x
I said that I thought it would be worth a try, but that we should submit this question to Peter Jenkins from Spectravet. Well, Peter did not disappoint!

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

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!
