Think massage is just for older dogs? 🐾 Think again!

1 year old Charly had an unknown injury. X-rays were normal, but his pain returned the moment his meds stopped. He struggled to stand and was holding up his back left leg his first few steps.

During our session, I found intense tightness in his hip flexors. After just a few minutes of gentle massage, and some yummy treats, Charly let out a large sigh and stretched his leg out. 🤗

The best part? He got up and immediately walked to his owner and  jumped on her legs. She said that she hadn't seen him do that in months!

Massage goes beyond the surface and can help bring your pet the comfort and mobility they deserve. 

Message me to schedule and help your pet feel their best again!

This event tugged at my heart strings!

To help raise funds, we got to see some of the past recipients of Virgil's Happy Wheels and some Scoot To The Stars Alumni race their hot wheels! 🔥🏁🦮

A huge congratulations to my client🌼🐶 on keeping her 1st place title!!!🥇💞🏆

I worked my first agility trial at Fuji Park in Carson City, NV! I met so many athletic and talented dogs.

It was so cool to see & hear from their owners how much better the dogs moved after their massages! I can't wait to set up my massage tent at the next trial.

Strange to think, I have been doing this work for around 10 years and this was my very first agility trial I have ever worked. Next time I will get some more pictures/videos of the dogs in action!

I thought I was ready for this, but I most definitely was not. On Tuesday we said goodbye to my sweet goofball, Scrabble Likes Beer Sulzmann. 😥🌈🐾💙🍺😥 I gave him all of his favorite snacks on his last day---Beer, salami, grilled salmon, cookies, bananas, and he tried a lollipop. I wish we could have gone on more adventures and hikes in our new city together, his younger self would have loved it. But it was too difficult for him to get around. I wish I could have held out for one more month so he made it to his 15th birthday. But it would have been to hard on the both of us. I hate this. I wish I could still spoon and cuddle my big squishy goofball. I wish I could still hear his ridiculous Chewbacca howl/bark. He was my first dog I had on my own and I learned sooooo much from him.

Rob and I took a bike ride today along the Truckee River to the Biggest Little Rainbow Bridge. We hung up Scrabble's old pizza collar in his memory. Run free over the rainbow bridge my Scrab-abble. 🌈💙🐾🍺

This week is National Dog Bite Prevention Week, which is dedicated to raising awareness about why dogs bite and how we can reduce the risk. Many dog bites stem from fear, and often, well-meaning actions unintentionally teach dogs that aggression is their best option. Here are 5 ways to help prevent bites and promote safer interactions with our pets. Please share this post to spread awareness!

We also have a full blog post that breaks down each of these with practical tips and resources. Read here: https://petharmonytraining.com/hot-topic-preventing-dog-bites/

Happy Holidays! I wasn't able to get all of my cards made in time. So here is a picture we took at one of the parks near our new home in Reno, NV. Almost every day there are stunning sunsets (except the day we took our family photo, lol). So I also shared a couple separate photos of the beautiful sunsets we have here, with Rufus barking at the camera. Hope everyone has a safe and healthy holiday and new year!
