Gemma has recently been getting to treat this beautiful lady ❤️

Shadow very quickly became paralysed leaving her owners absolutely devastated at the prospect of having to put her through surgery or even the unthinkable 😞

But with K- Laser, time, medication, dedication from her owners and pure determination from Shadow, just look at how well she is doing 👍

We are so proud of her and so thankful to her owners for letting us share her progress with you all 😃

Some of you already know her very well but if you don’t, Gemma is back off maternity leave now and fully back into the swing of things 😂😂😂

She is a registered and experienced veterinary nurse who loves helping your pets ❤️

Currently she is available for the K-Laser therapy but in the next few weeks we will be bringing you some exciting new services so watch this space👌

We are very lucky to have also managed to keep hold of the lovely Gill Griffiths who is our resident veterinary physiotherapist, who very kindly covered for Gemma whilst she was off ❤️

Now we are back to a full team and can keep up with the rush we will bring you lots of new stuff and keep you up to date on here so brace yourself for lots of content 😂😂😂

This weekend we had a lovely break in the Lakes and a trip to the Ambleside Pet Shop 🐶

I love this little gem of a shop and fell even more in love this weekend when I discovered they hire dog buggies out for the day 👌

What a brilliant way to encourage people to enjoy the lovely walks in the Lake District, even if their dog has mobility issues 👍

I chatted with the lovely owner of the shop and told her how impressed I was ❤️

Make sure you stop in next time you are up there!

They have a range of sizes as well to suit all types 👍

Picture of little Daisy Duke enjoying her Frozzy in the sun just because 😂

We ❤️ you Hudson 🐶

We have just finished a course of K-Laser therapy with this little cutie 🥰 and this is what his humans had to say about it 👍

“Reggie has just completed his first laser therapy course with Lianne due to a slipped disk in his back, after trying numerous different ways to help him over the last two years we are absolutely blown away with the results of laser! Reggie is the most comfortable he has been in a very long time! We finally have our happy doggy back! We can’t thank you enough ❤️”

Happy Pet Owners Independence day ❤️

Fed up of going out to work every day to earn a crust, while your dog, cat, rabbit or bird lounges around the house? Well, Pet Owners Independence Day aims to change all that. The idea of this wacky holiday is that the owners get a turn at lying on the carpet, while those fluffy, furry or feathered friends try out their talents in the workplace!

It’s time to celebrate Pet Owners Independence Day!

Don’t be afraid to ask!!!

When your pet is diagnosed with a chronic disease like arthritis it can be a whirlwind of information in a very short space of time 🤦‍♀️

Here are my top tips on how to start navigating it 👍

🐶 Try and stick with the same Vet/Vet nurse for information- find one at the practice who has an interest in pain management if possible- just ask we don’t bite 👍

🐶 Google but do it sensibly, find good knowledge sources- Canine Arthritis Management is definitely a good start 👍

🐶 Make a pain diary-even something as simple as good and bad days

🐶 Get a pitpat monitor- will really help you to keep an eye on your dogs activity in greater detail

🐶 Keep an open mind, there will be good days and bad days. You don’t have to navigate it alone though ❤️

Happy Mother’s Day to all you mums, pet mums as well 🐾

We hope you have been well and truly spoilt all day ❤️

Thanks for all you do and the unconditional love you give 🥰

I got really lucky when I became a mummy to my beautiful girlies 👧👧

Even though motherhood came with a chronic illness for me it’s still been everything I wished for and more ❤️

I’m so lucky to have the support network I do, so I can be the best mummy and still try and look after myself 🤦‍♀️ which let’s face it, at the moment its so hard to do 😞

Unfortunately today has been one of those days were my fibromyalgia decides it’s having this one 😠 (it seems to really like Sundays)

It’s ok though I’ll get back up and carry on because it’s what us mums do best 🙌

Even though the quote below seems to refer to the human-mum child bond I honestly feel it applies to all the pet mums out there as well. It’s something I witness everyday and it’s truly beautiful ❤️

Oh Frankie 🐶

We absolutely love seeing this boy ❤️

Not only does he bring us joy at his K-Laser appointments but he brings lots of other people joy as well because he is a therapy dog 😀

Frankie suffers with Elbow dysplasia so has regular K-Laser to help manage his symptoms 🙌

We have to keep him tip top then he can carry on his fantastic work with his mum ❤️

The beautiful Grace 🐶

Grace has been coming to see us to help manage her pain 🥲

She suffers with a condition called Syringomyelia 😞

It’s a very long word and basically means there is pressure being put along the spinal cord, this is caused by little fluid filled sacs.This leads to spinal pain and lots of other symptoms like constantly wanting to scratch her ear (phantom scratching) 🤦‍♀️

It’s treated with a multimodal approach of home modification, pain meds and complementary therapies 👍

Grace had tried acupuncture in the past with really good results but her owner decided to give the K-Laser a try 👍

After one session her owner cannot believe the difference 🙏

She went straight home and played tug of war with her friend, she was bouncing about like a puppy and even went out over the weekend and managed to allow people to stroke her without the immediate ear scratches or wincing in pain!

We are so happy she’s had such a good start and hope we can continue to help her live a better quality of life 🙌

If you want to know more about K-Laser treatment for Syringomyelia then give us a ☎️ or a message/WhatsApp 07710673713

This is a really good guide for owners of dogs with chronic pain 👍

“My dog is starting to slow down; he’s just getting old.”

How often do we hear this in everyday conversations with other dog owners? “Slowing down” is often seen as inevitable for older dogs, but in fact, age is not a disease.

Sadly, it is not age that makes dogs appear stiff and slow moving, it is pain. And what is worse, dogs are incredible at coping, which means signs of pain are typically subtle and may be missed until later in life when the dog’s discomfort is so pronounced that it becomes obvious to the observer.

Remember to regularly observe your dog and keep track of any changes you notice, whether in the way that they stand, sit, or move, or in the way that they behave (e.g., appearing grumpy or anti-social - withdrawing from people and activities they normally love).

Enrol in CAM’s free course, Is My Dog in Pain? to become better equipped to observe your dog and prepare for your dog’s future vet consults.

Exciting news to share today 🥰

Most of you will know our lovely Vet Nurse Gemma 👍

Here is her little boy Louie sharing the news he is getting a little brother or sister ❤️ I think brother but we will see 🤔
