All bleeding eventually stops… but…

In this 1-hour VETgirl webinar, Dr. Philipp Mayhew, DACVS will discuss how to optimize hemostasis and minimize blood loss during everyday surgery. Underlying principles of electrosurgery as well as vessel-sealing technologies will be discussed. Most of these technologies have become more affordable in recent years and there is no reason they cannot be incorporated into your general practice today!

Is there anything more glorious than an ancient dog with a smile on their face? I can hardly think of anything that even comes close. One of the challenges we face as dog sports enthusiasts is finding ways to keep our retirees strong and filling their days with joy and meaning once they’ve past the point of regular sport training.

This webinar will look at the day to day lives of senior dogs and how we can make small changes to improve their safety and comfort as their body ages. This includes some household adaptations as well as gentle conditioning and exercise suggestions that target the areas that often tend to weaken first in older dogs.

I will discuss two types of training that you want to consider for your aging pal. First we’ll look at proactive practical husbandry exercises that can reduce stress for both of you as care requirements increase and change with age. Then, we’ll look at some frivolous training games -strictly for the fun factor- that can be adapted to various levels of mobility challenges. These can be especially handy for dogs where previously loved games like fetch are no longer a great idea.

Additionally, I will introduce you to the concept of ‘No Two Days The Same’- where you can can combine the comfort of routine with varying enrichment opportunities to improve your dog’s behavioral diversity and keep their curiosity and optimism up!

If you’ve been wondering how to get that little twinkle back into your older dog’s eyes- or keep it there as long as possible- then this webinar is for you!
