Christmas is meant to feel joyful… but for many dogs (and their humans), it can be one of the most stressful times of the year. 🎄🐾 Does any of this sound familiar? • Your dog’s separation anxiety stops you from attending Christmas parties • Their fear of people makes guests hard to manage • They get so excited the day becomes chaos • You can’t separate them because they bark or panic • They steal the turkey, the ham, the pavlova — anything within reach • You worry about visiting kids and whether everyone is safe • Your dog is simply overwhelmed by the change of routine • Celebrating at someone else’s house? Is your dog coping… or terrified? So how do you know what your dog is really feeling? And how do you support them to feel calm and safe during such a hectic time? Here’s the good news: It’s not too late to make Christmas easier for your dog. With ACE Freework, your dog can start building calm, confidence, and self-regulation — and you can start right now. No training. No punishment. Just safety, choice, and support. You can do it all online, or if you’re local, I’d love to meet you and your dog in person. If you’d like this Christmas to feel calmer — at least for your dog — send me a message and tell me your story. 💛 [email protected]

VETERINARIANS!
How many of these issues do you see in your surgeries?

Michelle Kutzler wrote this list in 2020.
According to Kutzler’s 2020 review “Possible Relationship between Long-Term Adverse Health Effects of Gonad-Removing Surgical Sterilization and Luteinizing Hormone in Dogs” and related sources, sterilization by removing go**ds (ovaries or te**es) may increase risk of a number of long-term health and behavioural problems, including:

Obesity

Urinary incontinence and other urinary tract disorders (e.g. bladder-stones)

Hypothyroidism (thyroid dysfunction)

Diabetes mellitus (metabolic disease)

Orthopaedic / musculoskeletal issues: hip dysplasia, cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) rupture / ligament damage / joint disorders

Increased risk of various cancers: including bone cancer, skin cancer, splenic cancer, lymphoma, bladder cancer, prostate cancer (in males) and other neoplastic conditions.

Behavioural changes: including increased fearfulness, anxiety, owner-directed aggression or other fear-based behaviours.

Cognitive issues or cognitive dysfunction late in life.

Understanding why dogs behave the way they do is so so important.
Diesel is very reactive to other dogs and noisy moving vehicles such as motorbikes.
I have discovered that Diesel is actually fearful of the outside world and this is what creates his reactive behaviour outside of the home.
So why does he bolt out of the open front door? His Amygdala is doing all the work and he is just reacting not thinking.
ACE freework is the bomb at changing the nervous system from flight and fight to a place of calm. Today within the freework set up Diesel was able to wait at the door, calmly consider what was outside of the door, decide if he felt safe to leave the house, all the while enjoying himself.
After this session he saw a dog across the road and did not react at all.
A motorbike came past the house slowly and Diesel took a really long time to react to it at all and according to his amACEing Mum, his reaction was impressively less than ever before.
Diesel's case is going to take a fairly long time, no quick fixes here. I am so proud of how he is progressing.
It takes a village, and I can not take all the credit. Diesel has also been working with the most amazing chiropractor in conjunction with doing Freework with me. Michael the chiropractor has been helping Diesel release all the tension that he has been storing in his glorious body and now Diesel enjoys his session so much that he almost falls asleep.

Before this session, Diesel would have bolted out of the open door, looking for something to react to.Today we used our ACE Freework session to help him self...

If your Vet does not offer these options, it may simply be that they haven’t been asked yet — many vets are becoming more aware of the benefits as the research grows.

These hormone-preserving procedures can support:
✔ Healthier ageing
✔ Better muscle maintenance
✔ Reduced ligament strain and CCL tears
✔ Lower risk of several cancers
✔ Improved mental and emotional wellbeing
✔ Reduced systemic inflammation
✔ Lower incidence of hormone-deficiency–related diseases

They can also mean fewer vet visits and lower costs over your dog’s lifetime — while helping reduce strain on vet clinics.

Informed choices lead to healthier dogs. 💛🐕

Dogs in SE Qld have been having a hard time recently with all the storms we have been experiencing.
The dog in this video was shaking, drooling and hiding 10 minutes before we offered him ACE freework.
When he was finished he went home and slept soundly even with the thunder crashing all around him.
Would you like to help your storm phobic dog?
Of course you do..... Contact Jo today

After a stressful week with storms impacting my local area.
No internet at home, so needing to drive to another area each day to be able to work.
A horrible troll experience
My own dogs ill health
Hey! first world problems really!!
I just wanted to share this delightful little guy.
Baxter is a newly adopted dachshund/
His new proud Mum reports that he barks at people passing by and is reactive to other dogs on walks.
Baxter is the perfect example of 'if you just sit back and watch, allow the dog to be the teacher and we the student'
Baxter was perfect at communicating his needs and preferences.
With a diet change, daily freework and continuing love and support from his new family, Baxter is going to feel so much more comfortable in this world.
