The Healing Touch for Dogs: The Proven Massage Program for Dogs

I'm so glad I got this book, my dogs love it too. I was thinking of getting the books on accupressure for dogs, but this one contains that informations, plus more. It has terrific tips on how to massage the animal, different kneading motions, my dogs were so relaxed after they get massaged, you can see they're so happy from it. It's a great way to bond with your dog. This book also contains step by step ways to check on your dog, how to check for ailments, and what to look out for. Very good buy! Highly recommended!

THE PUP is 16.5 years old and has arthritis in her back legs. She is on MediCam and glucosamine, which help, but was still having problems walking. I ordered "Healing Hands for Dogs" and started daily massage therapy. The improvement in movement was evident within a week. I highly recommend this book to all dog owners, not just those with arthritic pets. Massaging has a calming effect on both owner and dog, and I noticed an improvement in my arthritic hands!

I have learned how to massage or touch my dog in so many ways, which I didn't realize there was a right way or wrong. The information was so important to learn about touching her body and knowing the correct way of doing so. I'm so glad I ordered this book. And I know my dog is, too.

This is a great book with wonderful massage therapy for dogs and it gets specific to the problems the dog is having. It is also very easy to read and understand. I have not read it all, but did read the parts I needed right away and it helped a lot. A dog who had not been walking for several weeks is now able to walk again. I won't say it is all due to the therapy, but it certainly did contribute a lot. Well worth having in your book collection if you own dogs.

My beagle suffers from hip dysplasia and arthritis. The medication the vet prescribed helped, but my dog was still in a lot of pain. Out of desperation I decided to check out books on dog message and canine acupressure. The techniques outlined in this book worked miracles. My dog is now able to move with greater ease and with a lot less pain; in fact, at times he has the energy and stamina of a puppy again. I highly recommend this book for any one who can't sit back and watch a loved one suffer. It is a common sense, easy-to-understand approach to canine health.
