Lets see... life in review.
It has been ghastly windy here for the last couple of weeks. However, Friday was beautiful. No wind and +7C (44F)... so I actually walked the dog. I have felt like a terrible dog owner. With the -20 to -40C temperatures in January to the wind storms in February, I've not been able to walk the dog. In the country, I don't have a nice pathway to walk on, so walking in the field, trudging through snow, all bundled up is NOT on the
'fun radar' for either the dog or I. But, there was a glimmer of hope (a teasing of spring perhaps), and we got out. Oh, I have missed that! My fingers are crossed that we see more days like that!

Alrighty, enough about me...

Let's get onto your learning for the week...
Guest BLOG:
Laser for Pulmonary Fibrosis
|
|
Given that I just finished the promotion for the Laser Therapy Update, when I came across a conversation about whether you could use laser for Westie Pulmonary Fibrosis, I thought, Hey! That would make an interesting blog. My good friend Peter Jenkins (Spectravet Phototherapeutics) as always, is top of the game when it comes to research and evidence in all things laser related. So this blog is courtesy of his
knowledge and research on the subject. I urge you to check it out!

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!
