As someone who loves any kind of animal and as someone who is very sensitive to the body language of animals (and also humans), I can assure anyone that there is proof. Anything from differences in stance to relaxation all over the body and face. If you really look you can see how grateful the animals are for the relief! You're doing an amazing job!

That was total relief in for him, even though he didn't lick and chew all the time, him blowing out was acceptance. And with him still being on the medication to combat that stupid Lyme tick he had,he's doing very well all things considered. I'm so glad they caught it so early otherwise it wouldn't have been such a happy ending for him. I hope you go back and we see how he gets on later after his treatment and do another session with him. Thanks for going and helping out once again Doc.

Hello, i love your videos. Would you ever consider coming to France? After a few visits to the vet they don’t seem to be too concerned about her slight hip problem. More and more my dog is not using her back left leg. I think she had an accident a few years ago, I was not at home and she had been left outside, when I came back she was limping and was not using her leg at all, then after a few months it came right. Went to the vet and they said she had simply pulled the muscle. Now as she’s getting older the old injury seems to be causing pain. If you have any suggestions for exercises to help her that would be great thank you.
