The Dogs That Can podcast is about what you can do to help your dog get moving again after injury or illness. Sarah Mackeigan, your host and canine rehab therapist is passionate about empowering pet parents (aka owners) to be engaged members of their dog’s mobility team. Many dog parents are unaware of the options available to them beyond medication, rest, and/or surgery when their dog is injured. The aim of this podcast is to provide up to date, credible, and understandable information from rehab and wellness experts from around the globe, helping us all learn while instilling hope of what is possible. You can learn more about Sarah and find additional resources at upwarddogrehab.com or within the Living with Dogs with Disabilities Facebook group which is a supportive and informative community.

Does your dog have back pain and you want to massage them at home but are worried you will hurt them?
It's common to feel scared or unsure when dealing with pain in our beloved dog, and that fear can stop us from taking action. Today we are going to take the first steps in overcoming this fear. In this episode, you will learn the signs of back pain in dogs, common causes, and when massage is safe or not. This is the first of 3 special podcasts designed to help pet parents feel more competent and confident massaging their dog when they have back pain.
I'm Sarah MacKeigan and in addition to hosting this podcast, I am a physiotherapist and canine rehab therapist, and have created a detailed PDF guide that goes along with the next 3 pods (including this one) as my holiday gift to you and your dog. Link is below the description.
This episode sets the foundational knowledge to get comfortable and get started with canine massage for low back pain. These episodes are designed to be a complement to professional veterinary care and include actionable steps for learning. Be sure to download the pdf using the link below.
