Blog - Building Gluteals in Dogs
And Four Leg Info on Weight Management!
The life updates:
I hope everyone is staying healthy and sane during this Covid-19 chaos. I'm not going to go about trying to tell you anything about that. However, it's a good time to hang out at home and do some online learning!!!
My 'at home' activities had mostly included helping my son to stain the floors in his house. It's sort of like putting lipstick on a pig. It's an old farm house... and our 'fix' won't be perfect... but it'll be better than it was and he's super excited. So we stained last Sunday-Monday, and just this weekend past we put on the polyurethane coat. It's a smelly job, and not likely great for our lungs or brain cells (we are wearing
masks however), but at least we're not out in public! Oh and we have that son and his dog living with us for a few days. My poor Borzoi is not happy with being harassed by a puppy.
Lastly, I just finished listening to a fabulous Audio book. Thank you to FourLeg Member Elissa for the recommendation. Without hesitate, I recommend The Resilience Project -Finding happiness through gratitude, empathy & mindfulness by Hugh Van Cuylenburg. The message is great. The simplicity makes it doable. And it's all told within a real-life story. It's brilliant. (And thank you
again Elissa. It was just what I needed!)
So, that's all for now!

I've put all of my exercises (and some of yours) onto a handy platform - Physiotec! It's a wonderful online resource for delivering home exercise / advice programs.
There are HUNDREDS of exercises FOURLEGEXERCISE.COM already! 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 / billed for separately, by... Physiotec... 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!
