⬇️ Muscular health isn’t just about the “fast” hobbies like agility. Many dogs discover scentwork because they cannot do higher impact sports due to age, injury or a medical condition. Because they are moving more slowly, it can be more difficult to see any limitations they have, but massage and muscular health make a huge difference to them being able to search consistently, comfortably, and cover an area effectively. For example, full and smooth neck range of motion is essential for the dog to be able to offer a high and low indication. Core strength and stability is essential for the dog to freeze in a standing indication. I could go on, but if you want to know more about how I could help your scentwork dog please drop me a message! 📧

Our dogs give us their all… let’s give them the strength to thrive ! 🐾

One of the most common questions I get when I’m assessing a dog is “what are you feeling for?”

🔤 T is for Tissue Assessment 🖐️🐾

Tone. Temperature. Texture. Tenderness.

The 4 Ts tell the muscle story , if you know how to feel it.

💡 Palpation reveals what eyes can’t.

🔤 O is for Orthopaedic Conditions 🦴💥

Joint issues like arthritis or dysplasia don’t just affect bones, they hit muscles too. Pain leads to tension. Tension leads to dysfunction.

💡 Support the muscle. Ease the impact.
