BODY - physical analysis and practical tutorial to understand and help your dog.
Your dog’s movement, posture and body play a major role in her quality of life.
Many dogs live with physical issues and pain. They need help, but pain is often very difficult to spot and analyze.
Leti, our experienced and certified posture, movement and massage therapist will analyze your dog’s photos and videos to give you an in-depth explanation of possible issues and an individual, practical plan on how to overcome them.
Whether you already know or suspect that your dog may have issues with her body and movement or just want to check that you are on the right track, this consultation will give you a wealth of information and insight. Not only that, you will learn massage techniques and exercises you can do at home, and be guided in making simple changes to your dog’s equipment and living space that will greatly improve her health and wellbeing.
Topics we cover:
In depth analysis of your dog’s body, posture and movement (via videos and photos)
Possible pain pinpointed and explained
Instructions on home care and possible vet visits
Massage techniques you can do at home
Individual exercise plan and instructions
Practical changes in everyday life

What can we offer you?
The Smiling Leash team members will organize an individual online consultation for you in English or Spanish. No matter where you are in the world, we will help you. Together we will set up a plan with achievable goals and support you through the process of reaching the milestones.
Why work with Leti from the Smiling Leash team?
Leti holds a Canine Myotherapy diploma by Galen and is a Turid Rugaas certified trainer with a wealth of experience in both fields.
Her unique combination of expertise in both behaviour and the physical side along with her compassionate and kind approach to dogs and their carers make her one of the best consultants to have in your corner.
Your BODY consultation
Leti will perform a posture and gait analysis of your dog, helping you discover and alleviate possible pain and mobility issues. She will also assess the environment, physical activity, social behaviour, and investigate the dogs’ habits to make sure that there are no repetitive or chronic injuries that result in adaptive changes.
With the results she will provide you with massage guidance and a plan of gentle and natural exercises designed specifically for your dog. You will have access to materials to help you in the application of the guidelines.
Throughout the process she will support you with answers to your questions and will maintain regular contact to assess progress and adapt the guidance.

Evy and Banjo (Greece)
I saw immediate results in relieving Banjo’s discomfort, improving his posture and seeing him feel more relaxed and happier and sleep better.
It was remarkable for me to experience how nice it feels as a client to have an empathetic person listen and guide you, considering your own instincts and observations and also looking at the dog and deeply caring for their wellbeing.
With Leti's guidance, even though it was online, I got excellent insights and priceless knowledge.

Loki and Meera (Netherlands)
Even though it was all online, we really had the support of a caring holistic team. First, Lyubov helped with Loki's reactivity and nervousness. This immediately reduced both of our stress levels and transformed the relationship between Loki and I.
At the same time, Lyubov noticed some instability in Loki's walking and referred me to Leti who was there to explain the possible causes, myotherapy techniques, and advised me throughout the journey with the vets.
They were always available for questions which helped me stay informed and avoid mistakes which made this much less stressful. Both Loki and I have a happier and healthier life thanks to Smiling Leash!

Lyra and Pip (United Kingdom)
There are not many online experiences that exceed my expectations but my consultations with Lyubov and Leti have done just that! They are so kind, knowledgeable and professional and I was actually kind of blown away by their insights into my dogs’ behaviour and problems and their excellent presentations containing photos and videos of my dogs so that they could explain to me what they observed.
Both Lyubov and Let have been so thoughtful and check in to see how the dogs are getting on which, in a word, is ‘better’! Lyra is so much better on short walks supported by regular massage.

Eli and Mike (Slovenia)
We turned to Ena for advice on our Mike’s behaviour. She suspected Mike might be in pain and told us about Leticia’s counseling. I recorded Mike’s movements, and was extremely surprised about everything she noticed. Leticia understood from the recordings that Mike was in constant pain. She taught me massage techniques and recommended exercises and other therapies for pain reduction.
Leti and Ena both suggested an orhopaedic examination. Thanks to them we discovered torn cruciate ligaments, followed by two operations. Before and after the procedures they both supported us in helping Mike.
Thanks to them, our Mike is now a lively pain-free dog.
