Free strength and conditioning sessions for suitable dogs and horses

As part of the clinical logbook requirements for the second year of my Veterinary Physiotherapy Honours degree, I am looking for suitable dogs and horses to take part in supervised strength and conditioning sessions.

These sessions may benefit:

• Dogs and horses showing early signs of arthritis, alongside veterinary management
• Older animals needing support to maintain strength and mobility
• Active young dogs who would benefit from age-appropriate work on balance, coordination and body awareness
• Leisure or competition horses requiring a review of their movement and physical condition
• Healthy animals whose owners would like a preventative approach to maintaining physical fitness

The free assessment may include:

• Observation of gait, symmetry and movement patterns
• Posture and muscle assessment
• Gentle passive range of motion assessment
• Individualised treatment where appropriate, such as massage, gentle stretches, trigger-point release and strengthening exercises

Optional paid services are also available, including a tailored strengthening programme, exercise videos, a written report, veterinary liaison and additional dog training or behaviour support.

These sessions are provided in my capacity as a second-year student and will contribute to my clinical logbooks, they do not replace advice from a qualified vet physiotherapist.
All animals will be assessed for suitability before booking. Veterinary consent will be obtained, and any animal showing signs of pain, lameness or suspected illness will require veterinary assessment before treatment.

If you are interested, please send me a message or email [email protected] with your animal’s species, age, location and the reason you feel they may benefit.

Food donations needed for Boo 🐾

I met this gorgeous girl Boo, and her incredible new owner today in a consult through NSPCA Dog Training.

In the space of just a few weeks, Boo lost the home she knew in a devastating house fire, was separated from her family and the other dogs she had lived with, and had to undergo an amputation of one of her front legs due to injuries sustained in the fire.

While she is still recovering from major surgery, this three-year-old German Shepherd then had to adjust to a completely new home and a new person caring for her. Thankfully, her new owner has opened her heart and home to Boo and is doing everything she can to help her feel safe, rebuild her strength and begin again.

The cost of Boo’s food, veterinary care, rehabilitation and future treatment will be significant, so I would love to help ease just one small part of that pressure.

I meet many clients who have bought dog food their dog simply would not eat, leaving a perfectly usable bag sitting untouched in a cupboard. If you have any suitable, in-date dog food that has been stored safely, whether it is an unopened bag or an opened bag in its original packaging, Boo and her owner would be incredibly grateful.

Please send me a private message, or WhatsApp me if you already have my details, and I will arrange collection.

Even one bag would help this lovely girl as she begins rebuilding her life. 💛

Scent work course starting 25th of June - email [email protected] to book in.
Scent work is mentally enriching and confidence-building, encouraging calm focus, problem solving, and natural sniffing behaviours, which can help dogs feel more relaxed and fulfilled. It is suitable for almost all dogs, including nervous dogs, older dogs, reactive dogs, and high-energy dogs, because each dog.
In scent work classes, dogs learn to use a clear indication of behaviour to communicate when they have found a hidden food reward or target scent while searching boxes, rooms, outdoor areas, or objects.
