Thanks...

Found a massage therapist for Zara today, she will be coming over on Sunday - she lives pretty much across the green from me (power of FB LOL)

Paddypaws - Hainault is much easier for me (with no car) to get to

Glad you've found someone local gettingready and I hope she can help Zara for you. I just need to ask though, is it a Canine Massage Guild member and have they asked you to get a Veterinary Consent form completed? If they don't get consent and treat Zara, they're actually breaking the law. I've been told today about someone in my area who is offering to treat dogs but is untrained and doesn't bother getting consent :eek: I'd hate to recommend a therapy and then somebody gets caught out by someone unscrupulous.

Agree - it also invalisates their insurance I believe

Oh, of course. And got the consent signed off by Zara's vet yesterday, thanks xxxx

That's brilliant :T I really do hope that Zara benefits from the massage as much as my lad does. He's been for a treatment tonight and we were laughing because his eyes were rolling up his head he was so chilled :rotfl:

Really hope Zara feels a bit better soon.

Sorry for neglecting the thread - started a new job last Monday and commute is killing me.

2 hours to get to work and over 3 to get back... awwwwwwwwwwwwww and with the tube strike was camping on a sofa in Ewa's place for 2 nights too so this was not a good week.

Anyway - Zara had her second massage today, she loves it actually.

She had reiki distance healing (thank you - you know who you are xxx)

She is still at Ewa's place Mon-Fri and home for weekends.

Due for Xrays coming Friday but still thinking about it as I rather take her for an MRI to a referral vet (got one in mind and no, it is not the one we have been to before) as I suspect the issues are more with the spine than anything else.

Will have to pay myself as out of insurance now and do not want to wait till end October renewal.....- waiting for the quote...

Thanks everyone xx
