Just a couple of updates:
My youngest son graduated on Saturday with a Diploma in Agricultural Management (check out the picture below). He'll be carrying on to do his applied degree, but hubby and I are proud of him for this first leg of that journey.
And we lost Super Chicken last Wednesday. A coyote must have come into the yard early that morning and snatched her. All we found was an explosion of feathers, and she was nowhere to be found. We're pretty sad. But I suppose this is the risk of being a Free Tame Chicken in the wild world! I did a tribute video for her. (See below.)
This week I head off to England to go to lecture at Vet Fest. It looks to be amazing! Not only are there tons of lectures, there's also entertainment, and lifestyle sessions, and healthy snacks, and dancing! It could be quite dangerous!!

In this NEW section, I want to inspire you to GO BACK THROUGH some of the OLD Four Leg Education Modules!
Sporting Dogs...
Okay, so really, anything on FourLeg COULD fit into this category... So I type athlete and sport into the Member's Search Bar and found these. I then threw in the stuff for Medial Shoulder because you really need to be aware of that with sporting dogs too!
Look no further... info is on FourLeg.com!

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!
