In Episode 38 of We Love Dogs, Cheryl is joined once again by Lorraine Tester to explore the world of Galen Myotherapy and how it can help improve a dog’s comfort, mobility, and overall quality of life.

Cheryl and Lorraine discuss what Galen Myotherapy is, the training and qualifications required to practise it, and how it differs from other forms of canine bodywork. Lorraine shares valuable insights into the subtle signs of pain and muscular discomfort that many owners overlook, as well as behaviours that are often dismissed as simply part of ageing.

They also talk about the importance of working alongside vets, physiotherapists, and hydrotherapists, when owners should seek veterinary advice, and practical ways to support dogs at home—particularly senior dogs living with arthritis or reduced mobility.

Lorraine shares a memorable case from her career, what she finds most rewarding about her work, and leaves listeners with one simple piece of advice that every dog owner can start putting into practice today.

Whether you have a young, active dog or a beloved senior companion, this episode is packed with useful information to help you better understand your dog’s comfort, movement, and wellbeing.
