The two main issues that Burleigh is dealing with at the moment are the arthritis in his front right leg and the high levels of anxiety that he experiences while on lead outside the home environment. This anxiety often progresses to aggression. These are our two target concerns.

After his first treatment Burleigh has been quieter, responding better to training and lead work. Not barking and running at the door when he hears someone. The neighbours asked if he has been away as they hadn’t heard him barking at the mailman. The next treatment is to follow up on his issues. Result from second treatment are…. Things seem to be progressing well with Burleigh. He seems a lot calmer and is becoming more manageable on walks. Was in kennels for a few days and owners said he was very calm and behaved, no stress in new environment. Burleigh’s 3rd treatment..

Hi Fifi Things seem to be going really well with Burleigh. He seems a lot more calm and peaceful. On his walk he is still getting a little anxious but he seems to be coming out of his panicked state a lot quicker. They also seemed to have lessened in intensity which is making him a much nicer dog to walk. We would like you to do another treatment with Burleigh. Thanks heaps for your great work. After next treatment..

Big breakthrough, Burleigh made it to the front door and just sat there and wagged his tail when a friend visited. She got from the gate across the property to front door without Burleigh having any reaction. Also saw specialist for degenerative condition in right front leg for arthritis. His right leg hadn’t gotten any worse, so didn’t need Cartrophen injection. His spine and back legs a lot better. Told to keep doing whatever we had been doing Burleigh is also now instigating play with other family dog, he never did this. He would wait for the other dog to say let’s play.

Hi Fifi, Well you are a miracle worker as Burleigh has been like a different dog since Tuesday. He has wanted to play ball, hang out with the rest of the family and go for short walks. He does not seem depressed at all and is spending hardly any time in bed. We are really happy with the results. As promised here is a little bit of detail about the injury he sustained. In early July we were staying at a pet friendly house in Brisbane. Unfortunately, Burleigh was running around in the backyard and fell down a deep hole. We knew straight away he had sustained a serious injury because his right rear leg was just hanging .When we took him to the vet we were told that he had dislocated his hip. The hip joint was out of the socket by several centimetres. The vet then put him under and put the hip back into place. The vet did warn us that this procedure isn’t always successful and they were right. The hip came out the following day. So Burleigh went back to the vets and had the same procedure all over again to put the hip back in place. Unfortunately as we were leaving the vets, the hip came out a third time and it was decided that he should have surgery. Which he did the following week. In the operation, they cut the ball off the hip joint and placed it back in the socket and scar tissue forms around the hip joint and holds it in place. The vet said that most dogs that have this surgery are back to normal and running around within a month. Unfortunately, for Burleigh this has not been the case. Hence the reason he has been a sad little man until last Tuesday after your session with him. I look forward to having you work with him on Tuesday.
