It’s been a minute, but I have to make a post about my sweet friend Toshi. This guy has been such a huge influential part of my practice over the last few years. He used to hate me and now we have settled into a kind friendship of understanding. He’s taught me patience and the importance of gentle touch. I’ve taught him how strong he really is and how a little massage every other week can help him move mountains. Love you Toshi. Can’t wait to see you next week! ❤️

My new pal Wuffles! Poor guy has a mass on his right leg, so he’s been overcompensating and has been feeling extra tense. We worked on those compensatory muscles and finished with some lymphatic drainage to close out the session. The proof is in the pictures - he sure is feeling much better! ❤️

A big welcome to my sweet pal Ouija! We have been friends for about a month now and we both adore each other (I may have bribed my way into his heart with hot dogs.) Ouija is a blind senior pup who has some mobility issues when it comes to his back legs slipping on the floor when he moves about. Because of this, he overcompensates with his chest and shoulders so he often feels pretty stiff! I showed his mama the skin rolling technique on his neck and the wonders of passive touch on his back legs and low back. Ouija is getting younger by the day and loves to stretch out - he’s feeling much more comfy with his weekly massages. 🩷

5 years ago I asked myself a question that changed my life forever: “What can I do to give back to the creatures who give us so much love, joy, and companionship?” The answer came quickly in the form of Canis Bodyworks for canine massage therapy and over 200 instructor led training hours. 5 years of hands on work with many dogs and cats and I feel like I’m living my life’s purpose healing animals with loving touch.

Every dog and cat that have been under my care I have loved. Those of you that have trusted me with your sweethearts, thank you. Those of you who are thinking of ways to help their cuties, look no further than canine massage. I have seen some amazing changes in conjunction with regular vet care care.

Give your pets a big squeeze for me today. We are so lucky to have them in our lives. ❤️

After almost a month without a visit, Toshi settles into his massage like a single day hasn’t passed. ❤️

Here’s Warbler living her best life snuggled up on the couch.

After a few months of visiting her at the shelter, I caved and she is now being fostered at the Zinn/Getschow household.

I’m not only going to work on her muscles daily with canine massage therapy, but also help her regain trust for humans again. ❤️

Everyone say a big welcome to Warbler!

Friends! I volunteer at this shelter and they do GREAT work. If you’ve been thinking about fostering, this is a great way to get your feet wet.

We are trying something new this year ❤️💚
Hoping some of our little buddies can feel the warmth of Christmas in a home this year.

10 days ago, sweet Don Juan was tragically hit by a car when on his morning walk. His pet parents Matt and Nicole acted quickly and rushed him to the ER. Things were touch and go until the next day, when this baby started turning around for the good. He was released shortly after and went home to rest and heal. Matt reached out to me to see if I could help and I was honored to see Don Juan right away. I arrived at the house expecting the worst, but I was greeting by an excited pup with bright eyes and tail wags. He can’t use his front left leg, so the main focus as he is healing is to gently work his muscles so that blood can continue to flow to those areas. I also made sure to focus on opening his lymph nodes so that the good white blood cells could flow freely!

After a 45 minute session with lymphatic massage finale, Don was ready for bed! I’m so excited to see his progress in the coming weeks. Keep this pup in your thoughts - he’s getting stronger every day!

Another Saturday at the shelter with Warbler!

Everyone say hi to Miss Mitzy aka Sweetie Pie! She’s been a client of mine since September as she struggles with two luxating patella’s. While only surgery can completely cure this ailment, massage promotes circulation so that her muscles don’t become ischemic and also provides a whole lot of comfort! Mitzy doesn’t like work on her back legs, so most of the massage is on her upper body which is bearing the brunt of her weight. She was sleeping like a baby not long after I left! ❤️

I’ve been working on Miss Warbler for over 6 weeks now and it’s safe to say this little one has stolen my heart. She’s full of life and personality - I knew her s***k would get her to stand up sooner than later. Monday I received this video from her favorite person Kaitlyn.

SHE IS WALKING!!!!! ❤️
