Holistic Healing of a Husky Through Laser Therapy

Image
Gibson is checking himself out in an edition of a regional newspaper!    Why is Gibson featured? I wrote an article that was published in a newspaper about K-Laser USA Therapy  and the healing effects is has on animals, and one such patient is my boy, Gibson. Gibson had been experiencing some severe hind end weakness, including inability to take stairs, splaying when he walked on floors, and having a difficult time getting up. Since he is an Epi-dog and on a medicine regiment, helping him to heal without medication was my hope. I'm fortunate in that I have a wonderful veterinarian team and a lead veterinarian who is leading the way in our area with this type of alternative holistic healing and pain treatment.    Gibson waiting for his treatment next to poster of how it works.   Today, a large number of us pet parents seeks out alternative, or holistic, methods to treat our own health concerns and now turn to those same methods for our pets’ illness...

Image
Bandit is ready! We've been having a bit of a heatwave here in the Northeast, with a week of low- to mid-60s! Pretty unseasonably warm for almost December. While many folks are enjoying the extra long warm spell,  my Huskies are back to wondering what the heck happened to the cooler weather and that wonderful October snow we had! So naturally in the warmer temps, they kick back and laze around on the deck and try to keep cool, especially since their winter coats were starting to come in! Taste testing. So what's a Siberian Husky to do to keep cool? Run fans. Check . Dig a deep hole in the dirt. Check . Snack on cool Freezy Pups®. Check. Now if you haven't had the chance to try these out, I have to tell you, please do! The FiveSibes™ love them! They can't get one fast enough! What are Freezy Pups ® you ask?
