Let's get on with the show! Got a Question? Need Answers? Need Ideas?
WELL LOOK NO FURTHER! See what the Four Leg LIBRARY of content has to offer! Or jump onto the FORUM and ask your questions... Not on the Forum yet? Go and register! Not a member yet? Why not?! Affordable & Expansive Learning to be had! What's new? I was under the weather for most of last week! You know, it's bee sort of a crappy winter for me - ya ya, it's spring now, but it snowed this week... so it's still winter. I've been sick more than usual, I injured my knee in February, my digestion has been a bit off! What the Heck?! I need to engage in
some sort of 'good karma ceremony'... or throw a virgin in a volcano (kidding)... something to change things up here!!
While I am happy about the arrival of spring, and I can't wait to get into my garden... I hate wiping dog feet every time they go out and come back in from the back yard! The Borzoi is particularly bad and has a couple of spots that she's decided she should dig!!! So, wiping feet actually entails a full foot bath on the back
deck! It's no fun for anyone!!!
And, we're about 1/2 way through calving now... another 200 to go! So, that's it for the updates... !! On with the show...

FOUR LEG TRAINING VIDEO 232 AN INTRODUCTION TO BOWEN THERAPY
|
|
This is a topic I have wondered about. What exactly
is the Bowen Technique? I've never had a Bowen Treatment. I've had people ask me about it. I hadn't ever looked into courses or done a literature search. So, when choosing a topic to present to everyone, I thought, why not research something I know nothing about?!
So, have a watch. I cover background, research, and How To. I'll let you decide what you think. In the end, I'd love for all of us to give it
a try and see what we think. For me, "the jury is still out" on this technique... but the premise behind using tendons to influence the autonomic nervous system is intriguing...

Carpal Flexural Contractural Deformities
|
|
Carpal flexural contracture deformity is an uncommon musculotendinous disorder characterized by flexion of the antebrachiocarpal joint and supination of the manus in
young animals.1 According to the literature, the contracture affects the flexor carpi ulnaris (FCU) muscle and tends to affect medium-, large-, and giant-breed puppies between 6 and 26 weeks of age! One hypothesis is that it is the result of an asynchrony
between skeletal and muscle tendon growth, resulting in a relative shortening of the FCU muscle. Other hypotheses center around nutritional causes, or that FCU muscles in affected dogs contain more type 1 (antigravity) fibres compared to their neighbouring muscles, which predisposes them to the condition.

For over a year, I worked with Physiotec (an online exercise platform) to create a exercise prescription platform for canine rehab practitioners. And this is it!
I've put hundreds of exercises together onto this handy platform. You can find the exercises, print off a handout, send them a link to the VIDEOS of the exercises. There's so much: Massage, owner-friendly joint therapies, exercises, advisement, etc, etc!
NOW... be aware that this platform is run by / owned by Physiotec (and they charge separately for it's use)... and the support for the website is via physiotec as well. The MAIN GLITCH I am finding now... is that when you e-mail or call tech-support you will NEED to LET THEM KNOW that
your question pertains to FOURLEGEXERCISE! (Otherwise, it's a bit of a schmozzle to get sorted, because they direct you to the Physiotec website vs FourLegExercise website!!!) Check it out and LET ME KNOW (what you think, your experiences, etc... so that I can report back if there are issues!)
I hope you find it useful!
Go there... Check it out!!!
