Well if Susan Garrett says it, it must be true!

"So what can we do...we can recharge the dog. Love body work here! If you don't know a good canine massage therapist please ask around. At least once a month get your dog a full body massage. It is such a great way for them to decompress I will admit. I will say for the last 10 years my dogs have got a body massage every single week. Now you could learn it yourself, there are people who teach canine massage...but I would still get a professional to do it at least once a month. So part of the recharge is decompression..."

I see a number of dogs who come to me just to relax; they are anxious, worried or find life difficult. Sometimes it isn't about finding muscle issues, it is just about having an hour to breathe❤️

Socially sensitive dogs can react to other dogs in many ways. Some shrink away, others get invigorated and overexcited, and some dogs are proactively reactiv...

When your next dog client is set to turn up in 5 minutes but you have to wake up your sleepy, relaxed doggos first 🤦🏽‍♀️

❤️ Edith wishes you a happy Skye Terrier day! ❤️

Famed for having a strong bond with its humans Skyes are highly person orientated dog and makes a good family pet, often watching over children and adults when out of the house. It can be very sensitive to its human’s moods and will offer affection in times of sadness (cleaning up spilled tears is a specialty) and comic relief in times of difficulty. Although initially wary of strangers the Skye is a friendly dog and once the first meeting is over will welcome new friends with enthusiasm and sometimes noise! (Skye Terrier Club)

Sometimes a new bit of vet bed is all you need to make you smile on a freezing cold day 🥶🥰

A couple of days ago I had the pleasure of seeing the beautiful Miya and gorgeous Bronte.

Miya is a younger girl, where as Bronte an older lady. Both have had lameness 😞 and both are shedding so well my leggings turned yellow 💛 🤣

Watching BBC news and seeing that the UK is the first to allow laboratory grown meat in dog food but then spot this... ..well I guess it keeps me in buisness, although possibly not what I should be getting most annoyed about 🤦🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️

After seeing the devine Welly for Deep Tissue Massage this morning I took my girls for a walk at Drinnies Wood.

About half way round we walked towards a pack of five collies and their owner. Edith was ever so good, but also got very overwhelmed by all the collies. Edith has been taught a 'safe place', which is between my feet, so that is where she went. Dora, who had been behind me, noticed this and promptly stood in front of me - allowing Edith to use both between my feet and between Dora's.

I love watching how older doggos help to train younger pups in good (and bad 🙈) habits 🥰

Wee reminder to check your gates / fences before letting your dog out to p*e today!
Stay safe ❤️

Big question in my life at the moment... who wore it better 🤔 🙈

Happy New Year to you all!
I'm back to work on Monday and looking forward to getting back to normality (and not just living off cheese board 🙈)

Shout out to all those already doing reconstructive surgery on their dog's new soft toys 🙈

🎄 Merry Christmas 🎄
From my hounds to yours 💕 and from me to you 💗

A number of dogs I saw this year are not here this Christmas. Thank you so much for letting me into your precious dogs lives and allowing me to help them through their last months ❤

If Christmas is hard,
If you've lost someone dear
Just look in your heart,
and you'll know they're still near.

The star in the sky,
the light falling snow.
The robin outside,
it seems like they know.

If this is a time,
when you're struggling through.
Just do what you can,
for what matters, is you.

You don't have to be merry,
there is no need to be bright.
Just do what you can,
it will all be alright.'
