Here are a few rescue dogs I took out for walks the other day – both are still waiting for their forever homes! 🐶🏠

We headed out nice and early before it got too hot. Ranger enjoyed a splash in the water to keep himself cool, followed by a chilled, sniffy walk. Afterwards, Willow had a relaxing stroll around the nature reserve in the shade. They are both such superstars! 🌟

Changes in a dog’s behaviour are often the first visible signs of chronic pain.

Discomfort may present as increased irritability, withdrawal, reluctance to be touched, or sudden behavioural issues such as noise phobia, aggression or anxiety. These signs are frequently misattributed to training or temperament problems, when in fact, pain may be the underlying cause.

It’s been a challenging few weeks for our handsome boy Tucker. 🐶💙

After a lot of thought, discussion, and consultations with multiple vets, we made the difficult decision to go ahead with surgery to remove a large, uncomfortable soft tissue sarcoma (cancerous lump) on his shoulder. At 13 years old, this was not a decision made lightly, but leaving the lump wasn’t an option—it would have only continued to grow and cause him more pain.

Tucker was referred to Dick White Referrals for surgery. Before the procedure, he underwent chest scans to check for any spread of the cancer. Thankfully, his lungs were clear, and the surgery could go ahead. After an anxious wait, we were so relieved to hear that he came through surgery well.

A few days after returning home, Tucker gave us another big scare. He suddenly developed symptoms consistent with a stroke or vestibular syndrome—his eyes were flickering, he was disoriented, unable to get up or walk, and completely unbalanced. We had urgent blood work done to rule out post-surgical clotting issues (hypercoagulation), but thankfully, everything came back normal.

Whether it was a mini stroke or vestibular syndrome, we may never know—but we’re incredibly grateful he’s made a good recovery and is healing well. He is happy, mobile, and very much back to himself in spirit. 💙 A lot of TLC and some physiotherapy treatment from me to give him extra support.

Tucker and I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! 🎄🎊

Thank you for all the continued support throughout the year! 💙

Thank you Dog Behaviour Clinic ❤️

My last post was about my own physiotherapy and personal training. Of course, recovery and fitness is just as important for our dogs.

For the last couple of years I have had the pleasure of working collaboratively with Laura Delve, vet physiotherapist, Move More Veterinary Physiotherapy. Laura is a fully qualified and insured mobile equine and canine BSc (Hons) veterinary physiotherapist and she has treated my own dogs, along with some of the rescue dogs I have worked with and some of my clients dogs. Laura also believes in fear free handling.

So what is veterinary physiotherapy? Is it only for injuries, or to help manage pain, or provide support following orthopaedic, neurological or general surgery?

Veterinary physiotherapy can also be utilised to improve movement and restore normal muscle control for better motor performance and function. It can also be used to improve biomechanics and athletic ability.

It can even help maintain joint range of motion, and promote joint health to give senior dogs the best outcome. Cold weather can exacerbate joint conditions, such as arthritis, increasing their pain, or cause more stiffness and a reluctance to exercise. Physiotherapy helps maintain joint health, fluidity, and reduces discomfort while also improving their strength, balance and coordination to help further support their joints and overall physical health.

This handsome little chap is Louie, a Shih Tzu-Yorkshire Terrier cross (Shorkie). I was asked to help him following TPLO surgery to repair his cruciate ligament and have had a couple of physiotherapy sessions with him. I have been using a combination of modalities, including laser therapy and exercise prescription, to aid his overall healing, increase strength and coordination in the affected limb, and reduce compensatory issues. He is such a happy little man and a pleasure to treat.

This is the beautiful Stanley and Phoenix. They had a general check-up and maintenance physiotherapy session with me last week to ensure they’re feeling their best. They each received a massage and laser therapy to alleviate any areas of muscle tension and discomfort. Both were absolutely lovely, and I thoroughly enjoyed treating them. 🐴

This very large and handsome boy is Winston, a Mastiff cross who received physiotherapy treatment with me following a cranial cruciate ligament repair. The early goals of treatment are to aid the healing process, reducing compensatory issues and encourage mobility. He was such a good boy, a big friendly giant! 🐾💙
