Well, let me tell you about Belgium!!! I've been here teaching Fri - Sun. The classroom is actually in a meeting room above a bar... How cool is that?
The students are good and the dogs are lovely. And I'm very very full!!! I'll start the diet again on Monday! Not much more to tell at this point!

OKAY, so let's get onto your learning for the week...
BLOG:
Puppy Trouble Averted!
|
|
|
Here’s another ‘true events’ blog. This one comes from a recent litter assessment. Oh, let me tell you how fabulous litter assessments are. Puppy squeezing and kissing! Who could resist that? Okay, so I digress. Here’s the scoop.
One of the puppies had a painful first rib. First rib, okay, that’s a common finding. BUT not in a puppy of this age. These little ones were about 7.5 weeks old. I usually blame first rib issues on jumping down, jumping over, excessive or aggressive pouncing… alternately, there seems to be a correlation with medial shoulder issues. So, why in a puppy? (PS. Yes, I checked the shoulder –
nothing, all good!)

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!
