Is your dog's behaviour linked to an underlying physical issue? Our Dynamic Dog Assessments go even further to provide an in-depth analysis of your dog’s gait and posture. By identifying signs of pain or discomfort, we can address the source of many behaviour problems. We look at the whole dog, offering a holistic approach to your dog's well-being. These can be done as part of a behaviour package or as a stand alone assessment. https://k9coaching.co.uk/services

My dog can’t be in pain, they don’t show any signs.

I spent the weekend walking around Cambridge for my birthday and I had a lovely time, but my chronic pain has flared up this week.

Even those people who know me best cannot tell that I’m in pain most of the time.

The signs start off so small you can barely see them unless you knew to look.

I walk with my right leg slightly turned out.
I come down the stairs on my left leg first.
I use my upper body more than I should to get myself out of bed.
My leg extension is shortened.
The list goes on!

My pain has worsened as a result of my lovely weekend away and at this point you can see a bigger change in my mental health.

I’m less tolerant and more cranky.
I’m reluctant to be hugged.
I am noise sensitive.
I don’t feel like being sociable.

Now, I still do things either because I want to (and they make me feel good) or because I have to. I continue to ‘behave’ because that is what society has taught me and I can just about handle it.

I am grateful that I am not attached to a lead, or walking on slippery floors, or overly exposed to things that make me feel triggered.

Don’t let it fool you. I am writing this from a place of ‘crankiness’ 😆 but I’m not limping or complaining or going to the doctors and my pain does affect me. My pain builds over time and fluctuates. My pain has a direct impact on my behaviour.

It’s the same for our dogs except they can’t ask for help.
