Over the weekend, our rescue dog, Jade, got her seasonal grooming session including a bath and blow dry! 🧼🐶

When Jade first came to us, she was an anxious mess. Since being in our care for a little over 2 years, we have seen significant improvement in her behavior, mood, health and overall life as a whole.

Jade is a 12 year old Labrador retriever mixed with an Airedale terrier - better known as a Lab’Aire. For those of you who know these breeds, you'll know the cross of them can be a handful!

With lots of patience, positive reinforcement and tasty organic treats, Jade has become much more confident of the grooming process! Her nail trims used to be a nightmare, but are now a breeze! In fact, she even looks forward to her nail sessions since she gets to enjoy a lickmat filled with organic goodies.

In her previous home, Jade was never really bathed, so when we first introduced her to the process, she was a little weary. Fortunately for Jade, her organic, homemade diet keeps her skin and coat clean and fresh, so bathing is not a frequent occurrence in our household.

During this grooming session, I used a lick mat covered with organic almond butter and stuck it to the side of the bath - this allowed her to be bathed calmly and with ease! Now that she's used to the process, she casually stands in the bath and allows me to do what I need to do. As for the blow dryer, she can only tolerate it on low, so we do the majority of her drying with a towel, only using the handheld human blow dryer briefly and on the low setting, allowing her to move away when she's had enough 💗

This holiday season, we are beyond grateful for Jade and the love and joy she brings to our lives. Thank you, gentle Jade, for being a Wholistic Hound! 🐾

Wholistic Hounds is dedicated to continuing our education to better serve our clients, including pets and their people!

Our most recent training course covers the basics of canine acupressure.

This course is taught by Jeanie Mossa MS. LAc, who is the founder of Four Paws Acupuncture, a veterinary Traditional Chinese Medicine practice north of Boston, MA. Jeanie is an acupuncturist, herbalist and author with 30 years of experience treating animals and humans with holistic medicine. She holds a masters degree (MS) in Traditional Oriental Medicine from Pacific College of Oriental Medicine and has completed the Animal Acupuncture certification program at New England School of Acupuncture. She is a former faculty member of the Canadian College of Oriental Medicine (Toronto, Canada). Jeanie is a certified Reiki practitioner as well as a certified Fairyologist!

In this course, we have gained a new wealth of knowledge when it comes to canine acupressure, including the meridians and acu-points, where they’re located and what ailments they can treat!

What is acupressure? Acupressure is a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) technique that involves applying light pressure to specific points on the body to relieve pain and other symptoms of dis-ease. Acupressure uses the common acu-points along the different meridians on the body. This healing technique has been around for thousands of years and has been used to treat a variety of human and animal ailments, diseases and pain.

This is just the start of Wholistic Hounds’ learning journey. In 2025, we plan to expand our training, certifications and learnings beyond the basics and delve into more intricate holistic modalities and therapies to better assist our animal clients.

Reclaim your power! 💜💫

Who are you making excuses for? Is there someone who makes you feel small that you still keep close? If so, the question is why?

Take the time to ask yourself that question - and just as importantly - take the time to listen to what your answer is. I know it seems silly to ask yourself questions - but honestly, the practice will give you a better understanding of what is going on in your mind, and what motivates you.

For a lot to people - automatic writing is an effective tool for understanding why they do what they do, and why they accept from others what they do. To automatic writing, you can either do a Reiki meditation first, and then start writing when you end, or you can just sit quietly for a while thinking about the question, and then just start writing.

When you write - you do it without hesitation, without criticism. Just let it all flow out. That is key. Let yourself write without judgment.

As said above, this is a very effective method when combined with Reiki. Personally, I have regular session with Charlene Robichuad from Dragonfly Reiki Marketplace. We often finish my session with both of us sitting down to do automatic writing - and those are the sessions I feel I get the most clarity and direction from.

The good news is you decide who gets do-overs, and who get hard boundaries in your life. The power is yours, so reclaim it.

We hope you had a lovely holiday weekend 🧡💛
We will be taking an intentional break from social media to focus on continuing education, writing our next book and self-care practices. 💆‍♀️🎒
For us, social media can be a major distraction and can also lead to some unhealthy habits like comparing, focusing on external validation or feelings of unworthiness.
With the holiday season in full swing and the New Year approaching, now is the time to remove outdated or toxic energy from our lives, change our daily habits and support our physical, mental and spiritual wellness 🧘‍♀️
Please reach out via email or direct messages if you need anything 💜

When I get discouraged because it feels like my purpose for this continuing to write articles for this dog page is sadly missing it's mark,
( ie: like the article about the dangers of your dog consuming a gingerbread house. ... most people only looked at the photo and commented on how funny it was 🤦‍♀️),

beautiful souls like author Leo Buscalia help remind me why we need to keep helping .... even if it seems that it only helps 5 people.

"The majority of us lead quiet, unheralded lives as we pass through this world. There will most likely be no ticker-tape parades for us, no monuments created in our honor. But that does not lessen our possible impact, for there are scores of people waiting for someone just like us to come along; people who will appreciate our compassion, our unique talents. Someone who will live a happier life merely because we took the time to share what we had to give. Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have a potential to turn a life around. It's overwhelming to consider the continuous opportunities there are to make our love felt."

~ Leo Buscaglia ~
