A beautiful soul crossed the Rainbow Bridge on November 1st, All Saints Day, so fitting for this lovely girl. Sweet Gucci, a 20-year-old JRT, received regular chiropractic care in her senior years to keep her moving and feeling her best. Her spirit, quirks, and joyful prance into my treatment room will be dearly missed.

Gucci, was more than just a dog; she was the heart and inspiration behind Nancy, her owners, devotion to TEAM Dog Rescue, fuelling her passion to help dogs as deserving as Gucci find owners who cherish them as deeply.

Rest easy, sweet girl. You’ll be remembered always. Xoxo My deepest condolence to Nancy, an exceptional pet mom who gave her so much love and care. 🙏💞🐾

🚨🐾 Heroic Dog Saves the Day! 🐾🚨

Meet Mossie, an incredible 6.5-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer and cherished FullStride chiropractic patient. 🐕✨

From the day Mossie was brought home from Emily and Rob MacKinnon's Stannyfield Kennel, she’s been a nose-to-the-ground kind of gal. With a nose for adventure and a heart of gold, Mossie soon joined scent training classes with Kim Mitchell and the Peterborough County Noz-It Club and Scent Training and tracking classes from Susan Read through the Ontario Canine Wellness Centre.

Fenelon Falls was buzzing with worry this past Labour Day morning: An elderly neighbour had gone missing. 😟🌅 Knowing Mossie’s skills, Kathy, her owner asked if they could join the search in an area where the neighbour used to gather clover for rabbits. With permission granted, they set off with Mossie in her harness, following her keen instincts.

Mossie led through the grass as the cool sunrise bathed the landscape. Suddenly, she stopped and turned towards the tall grass. Kathy called out their neighbour’s name, and Mossie darted into the grass. To everyones relief, Mossie found him 20 feet in, injured but conscious. Mossie gave him a reassuring kiss, and 911 was called. 🚓🚑

The OPP arrived swiftly, and the neighbour was taken to the hospital. Thankfully, he was checked out and released later that day! 🎉💪

Labour Day 2024 turned out to be quite the day, with Mossie earning her stripes and treats from the OPP Dog team. 🍪🐾

The neighbour and his wife were so grateful they brought us a beautiful mum pot as a thank you. 🌸💖

Sometimes, heroes come with wagging tails. Thank you, Mossie, for saving the day! 🏅❤️

Here’s a timely blog post that’s definitely worth sharing! It’s particularly relevant for veterinarians, pet owners, and non-veterinary healthcare professionals who are qualified and regulated to work with animals within their scope of practice and are advocating for regulatory changes with the College of Veterinarians of Ontario. Speaking from experience, it’s been a challenging journey with many complex issues. However, by collaborating, pet owners, allied animal health practitioners, and licensed professionals in related fields can help ease the burden on overwhelmed clinics and ensure that every animal receives the care and attention it deserves.
I will attend the Aug 29th Community Gathering virtually. Dr. Kevin Haussler, DVM, DC, PhD, will discuss the issues.

The current global veterinary crisis calls for a paradigm shift towards a more collaborative and multidisciplinary approach to animal care – the health and welfare of animals and their owners need to be the focus of care. By working together, animal owners, licensed professionals in related fields...
