Huge thanks to Ernie and Guigsy the XL Bullies hooman for letting me share this π₯°π₯°
The field is predominantly nice and dry now but these hippos found their way to the mud bath πππππ₯°π₯°π₯°π₯° xx
It's been a crazy time here... 4 weeks ago today my Misty suffered a spinal stroke and became completely paralysed in her left hindlimb. She has regained movement incredibly well but still has a way to go on her path to total recovery. The video is of her being discharged from Anderson Moores on 11th October. She can now walk completely unaided π₯°π₯°
To this end I've decided to postpone the fundraising event in Grayson's memory until next year. I apologise for any inconvenience but I need to ensure Misty is getting everything she needs... xx
I never knew that by becoming a canine physical rehabilitation therapist I'd also suddenly become a dog trainer and behaviourist πππππ€£π€£
Great session today with the most exuberant labrador. Was a bloody challenge getting him calm and showing him what his job was. His owner sent me this of him post our session π₯°π₯°ππ
He's exhausted. I'm exhausted π€£π€£ xx
Greyhounds do tracking!!
So yesterday me and the hounds tried out tracking with Ravendale Training and Behaviour. This is the video with the audio... π€π€
We had a fabulous time and I can't recommend Angela highly enough. She holds lots of classes at Houndie House. Check her out and enrol as you won't regret it ππ
Misty has not lost her competitive edge from her racing days πππ€π€π€£π€£
She went over and ate half of Woody's trail and took a sh*t on it πππππ€£π€£
Apparently she is a shameless cheat!! She also managed to open the tupperware box at the end and help herself to half a pot of cheese π€£π€£ xx
Going bonkers in the Barn
Good evening wonderful people hope you're all well. Sharing a personal moment with you... Misty has only played with balls to annoy Grayson for 4 years ππππ. Now she likes them - well actually loves them!
If you've not considered hiring our barn it's a fantastic space to play games with your dogs or practice recall in the early days to name just a couple of reasons.
Please note I'm a hydrotherapist my dogs don't play ball every day nor would I advocate it. They also get warmed up before doing it and warmed down. Everything in moderation but they LOVE this game. Please no comments on the fact my Greyhounds ball skills are so much better than mine π€π€π€π€ xx
Myla doing hydro for rehab post cruciate ligament surgery
While you're all in the secure exercise areas this is what goes on in hydro. Meet Myla the Bernese Mountain dog. She has multiple conditions but is currently post op surgery for a ruptured cruciate ligament. Doesn't hamper her kicking though π You will hear me call out knee replacement π€£π€£ The irony of helping dogs post their knee surgery π€£π€£ xx

Praying for Grayson to miss me!!
Absolutely cracking day in hydro topped off with some down time with my loons ππ check out 1.01 mins and secs of the video... That moment when your boy at 36.5 kilos is running head on at you π I remembered I was recording and managed my potty mouth but even after 3 years was still bricking it πππ€£π€£ I didn't move a muscle and just prayed for a miss π€£π€£ xx
