Hot Asphalt Alert! ⚠

Heads up, pet parents. With the scorching summer sun, that asphalt gets HOT, and it can burn your pet's precious paws. 🐾

Keep walks short and shady, or consider paw protectors for extra protection. Paw Pads, pet booties, socks, or even paw wax can be great options. 🥾

Remember, if it's too hot for your bare feet, it's too hot for their toe beans! 👣🐕

While chiropractic is commonly designated for its musculoskeletal benefits, its lesser-known yet equally significant impact on digestive health in dogs deserves recognition. By maintaining proper spinal alignment through chiropractic adjustments, we can effectively address digestive issues and bolster the overall well-being of our pet.

The spine is the nervous system's guardian, connected to various bodily functions, including digestion. Structural shifts in the spine can lead to inflammation and nerve compression, disrupting crucial nerve communication and potentially triggering digestive ailments like constipation, diarrhea, or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in dogs.

Chiropractic adjustments work to correct these shifts, restoring optimal nerve function and promoting bodily balance. Through realignment, we facilitate effective communication between the nervous system and digestive organs, fostering improved functionality.

Research indicates that regular chiropractic can be particularly beneficial for dogs grappling with chronic digestive issues. By reducing inflammation, enhancing blood circulation, and cultivating a healthier gut environment, chiropractic interventions contribute to alleviating discomfort and promoting digestive wellness. Moreover, many dogs exhibit reduced stress and anxiety post-adjustment, further enhancing their digestive resilience and overall quality of life.

The RAAHP (Registry of Allied Animal Health practitioners) has organized to help pet guardians continue to have a range of choices in addition to traditional veterinary care. Acting now may help you protect this choice. Please have your voice heard by clicking the link below and filing either and advocacy or complaint form.

This is NOT Anti-Vet, it's about access and options! Furthermore, RAAHP is proposing to be a solution when it comes to regulation of the allied animal health industry, but to do that, we need to highlight the problem!
The Competition Bureau of Canada is looking into this now. So, we need you to speak up!

This is a new online resource from my alma mater. I haven’t been in the site but it sounds like a great place for dog guardians to learn how to learn the basics of massage. Note the price is in USD.

Stella and Izzy have a visit with Dr. Jacquie (their favorite vet) today, so we are using the Clinic Anxiety Audio Guide at Canine Bodywork Online to do our massage today. Though they don't mind going to the vet, it stresses "Mom" out so this will get us all in the perfect frame of mind (and body) for it!
Haven't heard of CBO yet? It is a great online program for dog owners, students and professionals alike. Check it out while their Introductory Pricing ($99 for lifetime access) is still available!
