Veterinary Consent
As a Canine Therapist, one of the questions I hear most is:
“Why does my dog need veterinary consent before having Canine Therapy?”
​I completely understand why it can feel like an extra step, but it’s actually there to keep your dog safe and supported.
Legally, any hands-on therapeutic work with animals must have approval from a vet first - this ensures your dog receives the right kind of care for their individual health needs.
​
The veterinary field has its own set of guidelines and regulations, and as a Canine Therapist it’s my responsibility and requirement to work within them.
By obtaining consent. I can work with your vet, share observations and make sure we’re all working toward the same goal. Helping your dog feel comfortable, supported, and on the right path for a happy and healthy life and Your Dog feeling their very best.
I Jayne Strange owner of K9 Bodycare acknowledge and respect the Veterinary Surgeons Act 1966 and Exemption Order 2015 by never working on an animal without gaining Veterinary Consent. As stated by the RCVS, "physiotherapy" is interpreted as including all kinds of manipulative therapy (Section 19.21)
