A lot of owners don’t realise this…

If your dog is insured, physio is often already covered as part of your policy.
But most policies reset every 12 months.

So if you don’t use that allowance before renewal, it’s gone.

You’ve paid for it—but haven’t used it.

Physio isn’t just for post-surgery rehab either.
It’s commonly covered for things like arthritis, back pain, soft tissue injuries, and general mobility issues.

And in most cases, all you need is a vet referral to get started.

If your dog could benefit from physio, it’s worth checking your policy. You might already have support there waiting.

Save this post so you remember to check before your renewal date 🐾

ā€œHe’s just pulled something… I’ll give it a few days.ā€

We hear this a lot when dogs start limping. And it makes sense—life is busy, and they often seem fine in themselves.

But here’s the reality: if your dog is limping, they’re in pain. And while some minor issues do settle, many don’t fully resolve on their own—they just get managed by the body in other ways.

That’s when compensation starts. Other muscles work harder. Movement patterns change. And what started as something small can turn into a longer-term problem.

Physio can absolutely help—but only once we understand the cause and get pain under control first.

The earlier you act, the easier it is to treat, and the better the outcome for your dog.
If something feels off, it’s always worth checking. 🐾

Save this for later—you might need it more than you think.

Back pain in horses rarely shows up as something obvious. 🐓

More often it starts with small changes — resistance under saddle, difficulty bending, a shorter stride, or a horse who suddenly seems grumpy when being groomed or tacked up.

Because horses can’t tell us something hurts, these subtle changes are often the first clues that something isn’t quite right.

The good news is that when problems are identified early, they’re usually much easier to manage. A collaborative approach between your vet, saddle fitter and
veterinary physiotherapist can make a big difference to your horse’s comfort and performance.

Many dogs feel anxious about visiting the vets, which can make appointments stressful for both of you. By building your dog’s confidence ahead of time, you can help make those visits much calmer and more positive.

Follow along on Holly’s journey 🐾
Holly finds being handled by unfamiliar people worrying, and this can feel even more intense in a vet practice. With her annual vaccination coming up, I decided to start preparing early to help her feel more comfortable.

Three key things I’ve been working on:

• Muzzle training – so it’s familiar and not stressful if needed
• Visiting the practice during quiet times – letting her explore without pressure
• Confidence consults – we get 5 included with our health plan membership at which is a fantastic place to start

Consistency is key.
Practising these regularly, along with consent-based handling, helps your dog understand what’s going to happen during an exam. When things feel predictable, dogs feel much more confident and less worried.

If your dog struggles with vet visits, you’re definitely not alone — feel free to reach out via DM if you have any questions.
