Well, let me tell you about the Polar Bear Safari!!!
So, on Saturday, for my husband's 50th birthday I took him to Churchill, Manitoba. Nowhere you would ever go for any other reason than a pre-planned 'Canadian Adventure'. We got up at 4:15am in order to be in Calgary for our 6:15am flight. We were immediately taken out on Tundra Buggies where over the course of the day we saw 14 Polar Bears!!! This included a momma bear and her two cubs, whom she nursed along the shoreline until a big
male was spotted coming up along. Then momma and babes took off running. Another highlight was spotting a young male curled up sleeping against a willow bush. He then got up and walked along right behind our buggy. Pictures are below! Anyways, it was a fun day! We landed back home around 9pm at night, and can tick 'see wild Polar Bears' off of our bucket list. By the way, I highly recommend http://classiccanadiantours.com/.

You might be thinking, ‘What in the world is Laurie talking about now?’ If so, then perfect! I love attention grabbing headlines! In today’s blog, I want to talk about dogs that have poop left behind after they defecate, or dogs that tend to ‘walk and poop’, or squat multiple times to get out a poop, or those that seems to finish pooping early and leave some poop hanging on their butt
fur.
I have a correlation to share with you on this!!!

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!
