I LOVE watching animals eat! 🥰

Snacks that come with stimulation are always handy when I need to get work done on patients.

The Lickimat and Snufflemat are great ways to stimulate your pet while delivering a tasty snack.

Both are available from

Healing Hands Pet Physio had to undergo emergency surgery and fight for survival.
I'm undergoing serious healing and will need adequate time for recovery.
I will unfortunately be unavailable to see patients until further notice.
I'm truly sorry to not be able to be there for my patients 💔
I trust you understand.

We had to say a very sad goodbye to special Faldo.

It was an honour to support you when you were struggling with pain and mobility.

I value all the time I got to spend with you.

May your soul rest peaceful.

You will be missed~

This boy is too handsome! 😍

Faldo is golden at 15 years and still loving life.
Look at his styling new boots to prevent slipping inside the house.

Let’s talk about elbow dysplasia in dogs.

This is a condition where the bones that make up the elbow joint (the humerus, radius and ulna) don’t fit together perfectly or when there are ununited parts of the bones.

After your veterinarian performs a thorough evaluation and takes radiographs to diagnose the condition, they will discuss treatment options.

Surgery is often required, but sometimes conservative plans are an option too.

Either way, getting an experienced pet physiotherapist on board is the best way forward.

Giant and large breeds are more predisposed to this condition.

Diagnosing the condition sooner allows for addressing it and possibly limiting long-term troubles.

Once the cartilage inside the joint sustains damage, it triggers the development of arthritis, which becomes irreversible.

Arthritis is painful and diminishes quality if life.

If you have a large or giant breed dog showing signs of a front limb lameness, please have them screened for elbow dysplasia by your veterinarian.

Super excited for tomorrow's presentation at the 39th World Veterinary Congress at the CTICC in Cape Town, South Africa!

Theme: Resilience on the Face of Adversity.

Something we can all relate to.

I am thrilled that my topic...

"Meet the post-op spinal that went from paralyzed and obese to mobile and muscular"

was chosen.

I will share my success story as well as take a deeper dive into the magic of neuroplasticity and the central pattern generators located in animal spines that can enable them to walk without any input from the brain....

Pretty mind-bending stuff!

I will try to make a recording of the presentation to share on my YouTube channel!

Much Love!
