However, a vet friend of mine based in West Sussex will now not perform planned surgery on a dog without it having a course of Advocate. This decision was made following the loss of 3, otherwise healthy dogs which 'bleed out' on him on the operating table due to unknown Lungworm infestation. It is something I worry about as one of my dogs love to graze on grass and could easily ingest a snail carrying Lungworm

Snap! I have spent the last 6 New Years Eve's on my own with just the dogs for company Thats what comes to being married to a copper who is public order level I suppose. You wait till the Olympics. We won't see anything of them at all!! Perhaps we should start the lonley Police officers wives club!

Excellent news Mel. I have just eaten butternut squash mash for the first time. T'was very nice but not what I expected. What made me think it would taste like peanut butter

Craig was on the Michael Ball show yesterday afternoon, which I just happened to have on whilst doing a bit of housework dontcha-know, and Craig did mention something about possibly going back into theBB house.

JUKE HAS BEEN FOUND safe and well. He was reunited with his owner this morning. He had been picked up by the local Animal Welfare Officer and taken to the local pound. Neither the Animal Welfare Officer or staff at the kennels could get a reading from his micro-chip. He is on his way to the vet for a quick check and to be re-chipped.

I think I have added him to the site. Not sure if I have done it correctly though:unsure:

I have given the Dog Lost site details to the owner this morning. I'm not sure he understood. Ken is in a bit of a state as you can imagine. If he is noted listed by early afternoon can I do it for him?

Missing as of 7.30am this morning from Wanstead Park - Juke a smallish, smooth coated Border Collie (from working lines) Predominantly Redish Brown in colour but with white chest and paws. May have a slight limp as recovering from an infected paw. Micro-chipped but not wearing a collar. Elderly owner beside himself with worry! Both Wanstead Park and Wanstead Flats searched. All vet practices in area aware. All local Police stations contacted. All local dog wardens notified.

I'm glad you think Galen Myotherapists are ok Purple Mog Although I am horrified to realise it took me approximately 3 years pre-qualification theoretical and practical study, plus further post qualification training in Tissue Injury and Repair, Canine Therapeutic Exercise, and the practical, clinical applicaion of Electrotherapy, Low Level Laser Therapy and Therapeutic Ultrasound just to be a 'nice piece of marketing' I totally agree with you that no one modality 'owns' this form of treatment and the most important thing for us 'bodyworkers' , is getting the word out there to as many owners as we possibly can, just how beneficial manipulative tfherapies can be in supporting their dogs through certain musculo-skeletal conditions. And again, I total agree that when dog owners are considering a practitioner/therapist or have been referred to one by their vet, it is so important for them to consider and check the following: What training has the therapist received (some are better trained than others!) Are they Insured? Do they always focus on the best interest of the dog? Do they always refer back to the dogs vet if they are not happy with treatment progress or clinical signs? Do they work ethically and in compliance with all legislation relating to the treatment of animals (it is in fact illegal for any therapist to treat your dog without first obtaining vet authorisation/consent!) Do they come recommended? I will let Julia Robertson know her marketing is good! She will be so pleased. She spends thousands promoting the cause

If any one is attending Paws In The Park in September, please do come along and say hello! A team of Galen Myotherapists will be there all weekend undertaking Muscle Balance Assessments and answering any questions regarding Myotherapy.

Hi Cycas, Galen Myotherpists are dotted all over the Country. Have a look at the find a practitioner section on the website. http://www.caninetherapy.co.uk/find-a-practitioner/ It is not unusual for me to travel over 150miles round trip to treat a dog that I knew I could make a difference to. Although I am based in East London/Essex, I will also soon be treating dogs in the North Norfolk area. Where abouts do you live? If anyone would like further information regarding Galen Myotherapy then please feel free to contact me.

I am so sorry Jacqui My thoughts and prayers will be with you and yours on Friday .

Good for you! Lets hope it works for you. I have been a non-smoking smoker since 4th Feb. (5 months) following a severe chest infection. I was frightened into it really. At one point, in the middle of the night, I couldn't physically get air into my lungs. Freaked me out a bit. I didn'y use resonance therapy (in fact I've never heard of it) but used patches and an inhaler for those times when I needed that extra boost. I can't say I feel any better for it. I still stalk people down the street if they are smoking trying to get a sniff of their smoke However, the money I've saved is imense. Wish you all the best Lainey. Good luck.

Just to let you know I am thinking of you at this time and sending loads of positive, calming thoughts to Tim

I hope Holly behaved like the senior lady she is and didn't go chasing those Crows Its good to see her up and about after her op and still winning rosettes! How many is that now?? Glad you had a good holiday Barb. Will most probably see you at Paws in the Park.
