Max’s “recovery” hit another bump in the road… his elbow infection returned with a vengeance… over the weekend his elbow doubled in size… we started abx on Monday and he had his first acupuncture session, but overnight on the Monday his elbow ”exploded”… I’m so glad he sleeps alongside me as I immediately was able to deal with it…. It wasn’t pleasant…. Straight into the vets that morning for a wash out….they said how horrid it was… they hadn’t seen what came out at 4/5am! 🤮

Whether we will ever really get rid of the infection who knows, but he’s more comfortable than he was and walking less badly…. And he’s wanting to go out for walks and enjoys his grub…. Extra portions at the mo are going down well… after all, he needs more energy to fight the infection.

Laser tomorrow with the amazing Ki5 Canine Therapy to help promote healing….

He’s snoozing deeply and contentedly….

Love this boy 💙💙💙 My shadow…. 💙💙💙

Morning walks with Max. What a gorgeous day! As you can see he’s happily looking around and sniffing. He’ll tell me when he wants to get out for a bit of a plod and likewise when he needs a rest. He’s not attached so he’s clearly happy with his ride :)

We’re moving house soon, so need to store things at the unit… that means we have an exciting stock clearance coming up!!!! Unbeatable prices for new and nearly new wagons! Message me for more details and what you are looking for! I’ll post more tomorrow :)

If you’re local to Launceston (and even if you aren’t, this would be worth traveling for!) this will be a great event! Ki5 Canine Therapy keeps our dogs fit and well and couldn’t recommend her enough!!!

Exciting Upcoming Raw Conversation get together.

Tuesday 12th November from 7pm.

An introduction to Galen Myotherapy.
Pain is something we would rather not see our beloved pets be in but I would say we will have to deal with at some point in our dogs lives and will be amazing to have a better understanding of how this modality can help during times of difficulty.

Looking forward to learning a few techniques to store in my toolbox of health for my dogs.

As always the evening is about getting together socially with people who want to learn about new things, share knowledge, experiences, eat cake and have fun!

Day 11 - she just casually strolled in and lay down!!!! Well done Bash!

Will give her a few days getting used to it with the wheels off, then we’ll repeat the process with the wheels on!

Day 8 - all 4 paws in (or atleast the 4th paw just left the ground slightly…..!) most importantly that tail is wagging…. For a girl who didn’t know how to wag her tail, and was terrified of human touch…. She’s doing so well. Slowly slowly Ash Bash 💜💜💜

Day 5 - She’s getting more comfortable around the wagon…. She started off by being rewarded for looking at it, then being rewarded for stepping in….

It’s very easy to put a treat or something nice in to persuade her to go in…. But this is little more than bribing her… which would see quicker results, but they wouldn’t be as good results! As a rescue girl, she is super suspicious….. she knows when we’re trying to bribe or trick her…. So we have to go very slowly!

As I’m writing this, she’s just took herself into it!!! So let’s hope the slow approach is working!

Day 4 - we haven’t had any proper sessions today…. She’s just been exploring the wagon herself. So we decided to have cuddles instead. She gives the best cuddles…. To think she was so terrified of humans! 💜💜

Day 3 - no pressure just choosing to explore herself 💜

29/09/2024

Every time she comes close or looks at the wagon she gets a reward…. It’s a slow process but this builds a positive association…. It isn’t quick…. But it will be worth it!

29/09/2024

This is where timing becomes key - what I don’t want to do is to bribe her to go in - this adds pressure and it’s isn’t really her “choice”… she goes in because she wants the food. Bribing a traumatized rescue is not a good idea… what I really want is her to choose to go in and then reward her for it. It’s a subtle difference but is really important…. It will take longer, but the outcome should be better! (At this stage it’s a bit of both!)

Evening wagon explorations…..

28/09/2024

So I often say you can get any dog used to a wagon if you go slow enough….. well, I thought it was time to put my money where my mouth is with the hardest challenge…. For those who have followed our story, Asha is a terrified ex puppy farm breeding dog… she’s been part of our family for 16 months…. But is still too scared to leave the house…. Let’s see if she might feel safer in a wagon….it might be a slow story, but we’ll post regular updates…. Day 1 is just about introducing it to the house…. Not making a big deal about it…. Just giving her time to look at it….

Our friends at Tavistock Pet Emporium are raising money for 2 great charities! We’ll be popping in to buy some tickets soon…. I’m not sure what our gang would think about the octopus…. But it might be amusing….!

Yellow Wellies is an organisation that promotes health and safety and mental health awareness for farmers. There are lots of prizes including Big Momma Octopus, some beds, other dog toys and treats (both cat and dog). Please support these great causes. Tickets are 50p each or 5 for £2.

Buying a wagon is a big decision… we now offer a guarenteed “buy back” scheme so you can fully test your wagon for 28 days. If it doesn’t work for you we will get it collected, no hassle of having to try and sell it on! See here for more details! https://www.k9wagons.co.uk/buy-back-scheme (terms and conditions apply)

Guaranteed “buy back” scheme Buying a wagon is a big decision - sometimes you just need some time to try it before seeing if it will work for you and your canine friend! Now you can! Normally you can’t return an item if it’s been used outdoors, but that doesn’t give you a chance to really ...
