Over 15 years hands on experience working with dogs. Canine Myofunctional Therapy (CMT) is muscle therapy specifically for dogs.

Professional muscle and movement therapy for puppies, working, performance and senior dogs, improving mobility, recovery, comfort and supporting arthritic and age related change. Muscles & More offers Canine Myofunctional Therapy to all dogs, helping to improve performance, range of motion, pain and discomfort associated with aging and arthritic changes and assists in the total well being of the d

og. CMT helps to improve performance, increase range of motion and mobility of the dog. Janine Fraser uses specialized techniques to utilize primarily through the use of pressure from the hands. By directly treating the soft tissue muscles and indirectly the deeper muscles the whole dog benefits from this type of treatment. CMT causes muscles to fill with rich oxygenated blood flow and increase circulation; which hastens the elimination of wastes and toxic build-up. The techniques applied also affect and support the circulatory, lymphatic, vascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, nervous, endocrine, and muscular systems. Janine has seen many wonderful results and knows CMT promotes and restores biomechanical functioning and range of motion. With the alleviation of muscle tension, soreness, stress and spasms from fatigued muscles, this can naturally increase efficiency. What does this mean for your dog? Whatever the dogs needs are: working dogs, show dogs, hunting or just needing all round better health for our ‘best mate’ and companion then Janine Fraser will help you achieve this. With a down to earth, straight forward language and a hands on approach ‘Great things can happen’. Call today to talk about how Janine Fraser can make a difference.

💚🐾 𝗣𝗼𝗽𝗽𝘆'𝘀 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 🐾💚

Little Poppy has been coming to see me for quite a while now.

Poppy has a luxating patella, where the kneecap can slip out of its normal position, which can affect comfort, confidence and mobility.

For Poppy, the focus has been on supporting her comfort, mobility and quality of life.

That means keeping her nails short, maintaining healthy paw function, encouraging appropriate movement, supporting a healthy body weight and helping her stay as strong and mobile as possible.

She's also been supported with Antinol Plus as part of her overall management plan.

What I love most is seeing dogs like Poppy walk through the door happy, relaxed and ready for their session. 💚

Every little piece of the puzzle matters.

Sometimes it's the small things that make the biggest difference.

And Poppy is doing a pretty good job of enjoying life. 🐾🤍

💚🐾 𝗕𝗲𝗻𝗷𝗶 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗙𝗶𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗟𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝗝𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗥𝘂𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗹 🐾💚

Benji came in for his second session at Muscles & More following his TPLO surgery at Townsend Vet Albury

This little bloke arrived with plenty to say about the whole situation.

The first session involved some serious negotiations.

Today was a different story.

Both sessions saw the muzzle off.

Both sessions saw the Cone of Shame off.

But today Benji was noticeably more relaxed and comfortable with the whole process.

Before long he was stretched out on the table, relaxed, comfortable and nearly asleep.

Seeing dogs go from worried and defensive to feeling safe enough to let their guard down is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do.

Well done, Benji.

You've come a long way in just two sessions. 💚

💚🤍

💚🐾 𝗧𝗨𝗖𝗞𝗘𝗥 𝗝𝗔𝗡𝗘’𝗦 𝗙𝗜𝗥𝗦𝗧 𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗧𝗥𝗜𝗔𝗟 🐾💚

Today Tucker Jane completed her first ever Track 1 at the Northeast Tracking and Scent Club trial and somehow managed to earn herself Track of the Day along the way 💚

It was not exactly a straight line adventure 😅

There were rivers to inspect, Bathurst burrs to investigate, a deep sandy creek bed to launch through, cattle to consider herding and at one point Tucker stood on top of a log like a proud dominant dingo surveying her kingdom before remembering she was actually supposed to be tracking.

Honestly if she had started howling up there I would not have been surprised 😂

But this is exactly why I love watching young dogs learn.

Problem solving.
Working through distractions.
Learning to use their natural instincts.
Building confidence and teamwork together.

Dog sport is never just about ribbons or passes.
It is about the journey, the relationship and allowing dogs to truly use their brains and bodies the way they were designed to.

I am incredibly proud of this wild child Kelpie 💚

And for a dog that lives life at full speed through tracking, bush walks, paddocks and sport, I am grateful to have the support of Antinol Australia helping keep her moving comfortably and confidently while she grows and develops 💚

Huge thank you to everyone involved for such a supportive and beautifully run event.
The encouragement shown throughout the day was fantastic to see.

And yes… Tucker absolutely believed the applause during presentations was specifically for her and joined in with her trademark trout mouth barking every single time people clapped 😂

💚🐾 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗟𝗢𝗩𝗘 𝗔𝗙𝗙𝗔𝗜𝗥 𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗧𝗜𝗡𝗨𝗘𝗦 🐾💚

Tucker Jane and Mr Django back carrying on with their crazy lovers antics 😅

It always starts politely.

Little kisses.
Quiet faces.
Sweet behaviour.

Then Tucker starts doing her weird little paw shuffle backwards on the table like she is winding herself up for chaos 💀

Next minute it is cheeky bitey face wrestling with Django throwing down play bows and Tucker acting like an overcaffeinated Kelpie goblin.

Honestly though, watching dogs who genuinely read each other well is one of my favourite things 💚

Loose bodies.
Soft mouths.
Taking turns.
Just good fun between mates.

💚🐾 🤍

💚🐾 𝗤𝗨𝗘𝗘𝗡 𝗔𝗦𝗛𝗘𝗥 🐾💚

This beautiful girl is Asher 💚

And she truly is the queen.

I feel incredibly privileged to work with her.

Trust like this is never something I take for granted.

After Ashers session today, her mum messaged me saying she was super feisty afterwards and wanted in on the rough housing with the younger dogs 💚

Honestly, I love hearing things like that.

Sometimes it is not massive changes.

Sometimes it is just that little extra sparkle.

That extra comfort in their body.

That little bit more energy.

That little bit more life.

That is the beautiful part of Canine Myofunctional Therapy for me.

Helping dogs feel more comfortable in themselves so they can keep doing the things they love 💚🐾

💚🐾 𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗙𝗜𝗥𝗦𝗧 𝗡𝗔𝗜𝗟 𝗖𝗔𝗥𝗘 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗞𝗦𝗛𝗢𝗣 🐾💚

This workshop has been in the making for a long time.

I have thought deeply about what people actually need. Not just how to trim nails. But how to better understand the dog in front of them. How to create a calmer experience. And how to help their dog feel safe and successful.

Today was relaxed. Hands on. Full of questions, discussion and real life learning.

We spoke about tools, cooperative care, realistic expectations and different approaches for different dogs. Not a perfect set up. Real life situations.

After 16 years of hands on experience, one thing I know for sure is this takes time, patience and commitment from both dog and handler.

But you can learn this. And so can your dog.

The person your dog trusts most is you 💚🐾

Thank you so much to everyone who came along and trusted me to share what I have learnt over the years.

Little Jessie had her second therapy session with me here at Muscles & More post TPLO surgery from Townsend Vet Albury
⠀
She is such a little darling.
⠀
So gentle.
So soft to touch.
Just one of those dogs that melts into your hands 💚.
⠀
It is always lovely watching these dogs slowly start to feel more comfortable in their bodies again as they recover and regain confidence after surgery.

💚🐾 𝗔𝗡𝗧𝗜𝗡𝗢𝗟 𝗔𝗧𝗛𝗟𝗘𝗧𝗘 𝗧𝗨𝗖𝗞𝗘𝗥 𝗝𝗔𝗡𝗘 🐾💚

Country life with a young Kelpie is never exactly quiet 😅

Tracking. Running. Climbing. Paddock zoomies. Bush walks. Sport training. Daily chaos at full speed.

Tucker Jane lives life wide open and that is exactly why I have had her on Antinol since she was 8 weeks old 💚

For me, supporting dogs is not just about when they get older.

It is about helping support:

🐾 Joint health
🐾 Recovery
🐾 Mobility
🐾 Flexibility
🐾 Healthy movement
🐾 Active bodies doing what they love

As someone who works hands on with dogs every single day, I see how much movement matters.

Small restrictions and soreness can build over time, especially in active dogs that never stop.

Tucker plays hard, trains hard and absolutely sends it through life without much self preservation 😅

Her new Antinol Athlete bandana suits her pretty well I reckon 💚

💚🐾 𝗔 𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗬 𝗦𝗣𝗘𝗖𝗜𝗔𝗟 𝗕𝗢𝗬 🐾💚

Finny is not just a beautiful dog. He genuinely helps people.

He visits people in palliative care and brings comfort during incredibly difficult times. He also helps teach children about dog safety at schools.

That takes a very special kind of dog.

Dogs like Finny give so much of themselves emotionally. They carry calmness, gentleness and connection into spaces where it is deeply needed.

So seeing him come into the clinic, completely let go, deeply relax and just be cared for himself means a lot to me.

Even the dogs who spend their lives looking after others deserve a place where they can simply rest too.

In the study, anxious dogs were given the medicinal mushroom Lion’s Mane (Hericium erinaceus) at a dose of 1000 mg per 10 kg of body weight (about 100 mg/kg) once daily for 28 days. This intervention led to a ~62% reduction in anxiety scores, with dogs improving to the point where they were no longer statistically different from healthy controls.

For families who cannot source Lion’s Mane, research suggests probiotics may offer a powerful alternative.

A 2025 peer-reviewed study published in the journal Animals (MDPI) found the probiotic strain Lactiplantibacillus plantarum LP815™ naturally produces GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), a neurotransmitter that helps calm the nervous system by regulating nerve activity. Unlike traditional calming supplements, LP815 works through the gut–brain axis to support more lasting, natural calming effects.

LP815 clinical results in dogs (after 4 weeks):
• Reduced fear- and noise-related aggression
• More restful, consistent sleep
• Improved mood and reduced reactivity
• Better energy and emotional balance
• Faster settling after owner departure

That’s why when developed her one-of-a-kind canine probiotic, she included Lactiplantibacillus plantarum LP815™ in PRIMITIVE PROBIOTICS™—a science-driven approach to rebuilding and maintaining your dog’s microbiome using strains inspired by wild canids, healthy domestic dogs, and living soil.
